The years between the 1690s and the French Revolution of 1789 saw the emergence of new styles and genres in painting and new ways of making, exhibiting, and understanding art. The course focuses on painting, sculpture, printmaking, and decorative arts in Britain and France. But we also examine art in Italy, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and Northern Europe, and we study the eighteenth-century interior in some depth, emphasizing its social function as a context for cultural display and its role within a nexus of increasing global trade, exploration, and exploitation.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-tabs fusion-tabs-1 clean vertical-tabs icon-position-left\"><style type=\"text\/css\">#wrapper .fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1.clean .nav-tabs li a.tab-link{border-color:rgba(181,159,135,0.25);}.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .nav-tabs li a.tab-link{background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.1);}.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .nav-tabs li.active a.tab-link,.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .nav-tabs li.active a.tab-link:hover,.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .nav-tabs li.active a.tab-link:focus{background-color:rgba(181,159,135,0.25);}.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .nav-tabs li a:hover{background-color:rgba(181,159,135,0.25);border-top-color:rgba(181,159,135,0.25);}.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .tab-pane{background-color:rgba(181,159,135,0.25);}.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .nav,.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .nav-tabs,.fusion-tabs.fusion-tabs-1 .tab-content .tab-pane{border-color:rgba(181,159,135,0.25);}<\/style><div class=\"nav\"><ul class=\"nav-tabs\" role=\"tablist\"><li class=\"active\"><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-997181b8cadd7847ed1\" aria-selected=\"true\" id=\"fusion-tab-assessment\" href=\"#tab-997181b8cadd7847ed1\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\"><i class=\"fontawesome-icon fa-check-square far\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:22px;\"><\/i>Assessment<\/h4><\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-ad7e5507cc94ea3f06f\" aria-selected=\"false\" tabindex=\"-1\" id=\"fusion-tab-prerequisite\" href=\"#tab-ad7e5507cc94ea3f06f\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\"><i class=\"fontawesome-icon fa-check-square fas\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:22px;\"><\/i>Prerequisite<\/h4><\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-5e394e3b7e04860f44f\" aria-selected=\"false\" tabindex=\"-1\" id=\"fusion-tab-non-permissiblecombination\" href=\"#tab-5e394e3b7e04860f44f\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\"><i class=\"fontawesome-icon fa-check-square far\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:22px;\"><\/i>Non-permissible combination<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"tab-content\"><div class=\"nav fusion-mobile-tab-nav\"><ul class=\"nav-tabs\"><li class=\"active\"><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-997181b8cadd7847ed1\" aria-selected=\"true\" id=\"mobile-fusion-tab-assessment\" href=\"#tab-997181b8cadd7847ed1\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\"><i class=\"fontawesome-icon fa-check-square far\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:22px;\"><\/i>Assessment<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"tab-pane fade fusion-clearfix in active\" role=\"tabpanel\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"fusion-tab-assessment\" id=\"tab-997181b8cadd7847ed1\">\n<p><strong>100% coursework<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"nav fusion-mobile-tab-nav\"><ul class=\"nav-tabs\"><li><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-ad7e5507cc94ea3f06f\" aria-selected=\"false\" tabindex=\"-1\" id=\"mobile-fusion-tab-prerequisite\" href=\"#tab-ad7e5507cc94ea3f06f\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\"><i class=\"fontawesome-icon fa-check-square fas\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:22px;\"><\/i>Prerequisite<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"tab-pane fade fusion-clearfix\" role=\"tabpanel\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"fusion-tab-prerequisite\" id=\"tab-ad7e5507cc94ea3f06f\">\n<p><strong>None<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"nav fusion-mobile-tab-nav\"><ul class=\"nav-tabs\"><li><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-5e394e3b7e04860f44f\" aria-selected=\"false\" tabindex=\"-1\" id=\"mobile-fusion-tab-non-permissiblecombination\" href=\"#tab-5e394e3b7e04860f44f\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\"><i class=\"fontawesome-icon fa-check-square far\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:22px;\"><\/i>Non-permissible combination<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"tab-pane fade fusion-clearfix\" role=\"tabpanel\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"fusion-tab-non-permissiblecombination\" id=\"tab-5e394e3b7e04860f44f\">\n<p><strong>FINE2086<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_1_3 1_3 fusion-one-third fusion-column-last\" style=\"width:33.333333333333%;width:calc(33.333333333333% -
