Overview
At the History of Art - A Thousand Years of European Highlights BA program by Utrecht Summer School you'll seize this opportunity to travel back through time and through some of Europe's most incredible museums in only one summer!
In Florence, you will have the chance to see the works of the great Italian Masters of the Renaissance in the flesh, visiting the many renowned museums, magnificent cathedrals and grand palaces.
The journey then continues up north, to Utrecht. Since the Netherlands is a relatively small country, we will visit several cities to discover Dutch Golden Age art. All the landscapes, seascapes, portraits and still lifes may look so realistic that one can feel the sea-breeze and smell the grapes, but in fact, nothing in these artistic works really is what it seems.
Key facts:
The last two weeks of the History of Art - A Thousand Years of European Highlights - Track course from Utrecht Summer School take place in Berlin. In this amazing city you will learn all about the circumstances that shaped the production and reception of German art during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
