Titans of the Renaissance
ZOOM
|
1:00-3:00 pm |
The High Renaissance was a brief tranquil 30-year
period at the end of the 1400s and start of the 1500s when the
technical mastery to produce illusionistic art and the desire to
make classically-inspired art came together in the hands of
profound thinkers. Join Elderwise as Wendy Evans presents a rich
variety of images by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael,
while exploring their personal stories and the times in which they
lived, as well as their contributions to art. Celebrities courted
by princes and popes, these men produced some of the most
influential works of western art.
REGISTRATION REQUIRED -
https://www.campusce.net/elderwise/category/category.aspx $45 for
members/$30 for
non-members for the series.
Zoom link will be sent to
registrants one day before the class.
