Lesson Plans:

Week #13 ~
November 17 - 22


This Enlightenment Age ended with 3 major revolutions -- Industrial / American / French.
These revolutions take us into the Romantic Age (1760 - 1830), which we covered on Wednesday night, November 19th.
 
Romanticism was followed by an Age of Realism (mid-1800s).
We will cover Realism in the Arts on Monday, November 24th.

Cultures and art styles went through many dramatic changes in the late 1800s, reflecting major changes in societies.
In our last week of classes, we will review these changes as seen in the art styles of Impressionism & Post-Impressionism & Early Modernism.

DUE DATES:

* On Monday, November 17th, you got your last homework packet on "Last Artists and Art Styles".  It is due on Monday, November 24th.

There are 4 paintings for you to identify -- 2 Renaissance / 2 Baroque. You must identify them as Italian Renaissance / Northern Renaissance or Florid Baroque / French Baroque / Protestant Baroque and give specific charcteristics to explain why.
