- Learning outcomes: The course will feature twelve lectures during the Autumn semester. Students will be able to finish the course with a written assignment. Part of the lectures will be held in Budapest museums (e.g. Hungarian National Museum, Hungarian National Gallery, Museum of Fine Arts). Course content: This lecture focuses on the art and architecture in Hungary during the Early Modern period. The goal of the course is to get students of art history acquainted with the history of late Renaissance and Baroque art in the former Kingdom of Hungary and Transylvania, as well as the international networks and cultural transfers that shaped the local artistic trends of the Central-European region during the 17th and 18th centuries. During the lectures, a special attention will be given to the assessment of artworks and architectural sites in the light of theoretical frameworks offered by international scholars recently, including the works of Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann and Piotr Piotrowski. Besides the more well-known artists and artworks, lectures will be devoted to less researched topics, including Baroque material culture of the early modern period; the use reproductive prints and the questions of ‘originality’; the impact of popular imagery on the visual culture of this era, as well as monumental paintings based on symbolic representations found in Emblem books.
