The aim of this course is to acquaint the student with the most significant individuals and movements in the history or American painting and sculpture from the Colonial Period to 1940.

Required reading includes sections from the text that parallel classroom topics. In addition, students are required to read a section of articles that treat some course topics in greater depth and detail.
