Overview
This course explores the unique artistic culture of Renaissance Rome. It covers the period from the return of the papacy to Rome after the Council of Constance (1420) to the Sack of Rome by Imperial troops in 1527 and its immediate aftermath. This is the period when Bramante was completing his designs for the new Basilica of saint Peter’s; Michelangelo was painting the Sistine Chapel; and Raphael and his studio were working nearby in the papal apartments.
