Course Overview

Our History of Art BA will develop your appreciation for art by revealing the details of its history and placing it in its historical context. You will explore art as a reflection of its historical context – a window into the past.

Experience is as much a part of this course as academic discussion. You will have the opportunity to travel to Italy for three weeks over the Easter vacation in year two. This fully subsidized trip to Rome, Siena, and Florence will allow you to get up close to many of the greatest masterpieces of Italian painting, sculpture, and architecture ranging in date from classical antiquity to the eighteenth century.

Employability is embedded into our course: you will gain hands-on experience in programming and promoting a ‘film and art’ event, and will graduate will real-world skills as well as academic knowledge. Our graduates have gone onto enjoy careers with organisations such as the Tate gallery, Victoria and Albert Museum and auction houses such as Christie's and Phillips.

You will learn about the changing modes of art that have developed since classical antiquity and the various artists, sculptors and architects that have pioneered change in their fields. You will also develop your ability to discuss and critique art in a professional manner that takes into account the essential texts surrounding the history of art.
