Brushstrokes of History
New 2025 Course
"A look at paintings that depict important historical events or simply reveal fascinating aspects of contemporary society.
This is a history course rather than an art history course but art is very much at its centre.
We will look at the Dutch "Golden Age" centred on Amsterdam and the great works of Rembrandt and other artists working there.
We will also examine Renaissance Italy, the driving forces behind it, the rivalries and even wars between city states, and the paintings of Botticelli, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, Titian and others who flourished as artists at this time.
We'll also cover American art from 1850 to 1950, a period during which the United States moved on from the devastating Civil War, when it was still largely a rural country, to being an industrial giant with a predominantly urbanised population."
“The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” — Alvin Toffler
