Course Description
Antiquity and Innovation in Early Medieval Art
The reign of King (later Emperor) Charlemagne (768-814 AD) marked a flourishing of the visual arts that had not been seen since the fall of the Roman Empire. Often styled the ‘Carolingian Renaissance’, the artistic culture of the period was characterised by a politically-motivated evocation of the classical past, fused with elements of existing art styles and innovation in areas such as monastic planning and the commission of new types of fine metalwork and illuminated manuscript.
This course, led by Dr. Rachel Moss, focuses on the style and influences of art in this period, and the technical and cultural innovations that informed it.
