About

This Cultural Heritage in Conflict - The Legacy of Looted Art course offered by The Courtauld Institute of Art investigates the treatment of cultural heritage during periods of armed conflict from the ancient world to the modern day, in order to critically examine how warfare has shaped an international understanding of cultural property.

Overview

What you will study

  • Throughout the Cultural Heritage in Conflict - The Legacy of Looted Art course offered by The Courtauld Institute of Art , we shall discuss the ideological motivations behind the targeting of cultural heritage as a weapon of war; chart the evolution of military cultural property protection; and consider the longstanding relationship between the plunder, collection and trade of cultural artefacts. 
  • We shall then explore the legal, ethical and art-historical legacy of these so-called ‘conflict objects’ – cultural property dispossessed during periods of significant violent unrest – including their collection and trade through the market.

  • Artefacts looted during ancient Greek, Persian and Roman battles
  • Napoleonic campaigns
  • the First and Second World Wars
