Learning unit contents
Art historians and archeologists have various possibilities for the analysis of sculptures or sets of sculptures. We intend to review them during a course which will be held sometimes in the lecture hall, sometimes in front of particular works that we will approach either in situ or in a laboratory. We will thus review the methods of analysis that are offered not only by the exact sciences but also by the traditional methods of Art History (iconographic study, stylistic study etc.).
Most cases dealt with in the course will relate to Middle Ages and Renaissance Art History.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
At the end of the course, the student should be able to set-up by himself a complete dossier on a given sculpture or group of sculptures, taking advantage of all approach methods - including the most recent - while having in mind the advantages and limitations of each of these methods.
