The module provides students with a systematic understanding of the most significant art historical developments in nineteenth-century Europe. It aims to facilitate analytic and interpretative skill using available documentation, and to educate students in the study of visual objects and material history. The module provides a close study of the most significant individual artists, and proceeds to look generally at the emergence of avant-garde movements. There is a theoretical component which provides the broader context for these developments.
