This is a clear concise series of Art History lectures that cover the major works of painting, sculpture, and architecture. My lecture style is casual and clear. I don't believe in using a lot of jargon or overly complicated language.

It is better than I expected. Because it was an online course I was afraid that would be superficial and lack more in-depth information, but I was surprised (in a good way) that is quite detailed and has a lot of material to study (texts, slides, etc).

By Ann Guilland on 11/15/2020

Good information. Easy to follow

By Heather L. Thompson on 11/15/2020

Yes, I always regretted not taking art history as an elective in university and this course is fulfilling a long term desire. The comparisons across cultures is also very interesting.

By Mariia Yevdokymova on 11/15/2020

Great information, hard to read on the slides

Czechoslovakia doesn't exist since 1992... Here comes the question when was this video recorded?

By Jaime on 9/26/2020

Video not playing!

By MIND TURBINE . on 8/13/2020

Graphics can be more engaging.

By Antoinette on 7/24/2020

I love it so far. Very informative for someone with only a great interest in art, but no artistic background. Very much looking forward to the rest!

By Cristina Rosa on 7/6/2020

Corso molto interessante, difficile per la mancanza di sottotitoli in italiano. Ma comunque discretamente comprensibile se si ha gi alle spalle una buona conoscenza della materia.

By Bonnie-Ann Black on 7/6/2020

So far, I haven't learned a lot that i didn't already know, but it's presented in an orderly and interconnected fashion that i like.

By Ghada Alsayed on 7/5/2020

the lecturer is good, but none of the reading materials and power point is downloadable, it is not in PDF format??

By Grace Nuttall on 7/2/2020

Interesting content, but production quality could be better (audio quality, slide design)
