Description

No era of artistic achievement is as renowned as the Renaissance, and no country holds a higher place in it than Italy.

In this course you experience supreme artworks created in Florence, Rome, Venice, and other Italian cities by such masters as Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Titian—unequaled masterpieces that established a canon of beauty that pervades Western culture to this day.

With your expert guide, you enter a world that is incomparably rich, filled with emotion and drama that is palpable, though sometimes mysterious to our modern sensibility.

You will penetrate that mystery to appreciate anew how these masterpieces were created and what they meant to the artists and people of their time.
