HAVC 135L Nineteenth-Century Europe in Prints

Focuses on the public lives of printed pictures in Europe between 1789 and 1914. In lectures and in written assignments, the class analyzes how artists created works in multiple, which were then circulated by publishers and dealers and consumed by viewers across Europe. In-class discussions compare 19th-century print cultures to our current practices of engaging socially with digital images to see what each illuminates about the other.
