About

Based on examples from The Courtauld’s world-class graphic collections, 'The Root of Everything' - Drawing in Europe from the Renaissance to the Modern Period course offered by The Courtauld Institute of Art investigates the essential building blocks of drawings: the media and supports which artists have used across the centuries.

Overview

What you will study

  • 'The Root of Everything' - Drawing in Europe from the Renaissance to the Modern Period course offered by The Courtauld Institute of Art shall explore the material properties of different papers and media, their changing use from the Renaissance to the modern period, and the ways in which materials have been chosen to convey meaning. 
  • These object-study sessions in the prints and drawings room are complemented in the classroom by lectures and seminars that look at the role of drawing in the wider history of European art.
