The aim of the course is to provide students with an overview of the development of the history of European and Czech art from the beginning of the 17th century to the end of the Baroque period. Emphasis is placed on the overall historical context, selected artistic personalities, and individual important sites and cultural centres. It is also an interpretation of specific buildings and works of art of the Baroque period from its individual phases and regional schools.
The graduate is able to describe the origins and development of Baroque art in Italy and its spread to other European countries, including major artistic centres. The student identifies the key figures of the Baroque, in particular Gian Lorenzo Bernini and his followers, and analyses their contribution to European art. Explains the historical, political and religious context of Baroque culture in the Czech lands, including the role of the aristocracy, religious orders and patrons. Distinguish between the phases of the development of Baroque art - from the proto-Baroque to the late Baroque and the beginnings of Classicism - in the European and Czech context. Characterises the specific features of Baroque architecture, painting and sculpture in Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia, Austria and Saxony. Interprets architecture, painting and sculpture within the broader cultural and social framework of the Baroque period. |
