- Class Description:
- During the early modern period in Europe (ca. 1500-1800), borders between "art" and "science" (to the extent that these borders existed at all) were very much in-the-making, and it was possible to cross them with relative ease. Leonardo da Vinci is just one example of an early modern artist for whom the distinction between the artist's creative capacities and the pursuit of scientific curiosity was, to put it simply, unfathomable. This course will introduce you to the diverse ways in which the making of art and the making of scientific knowledge intersected in early modern Europe. We will explore connections between scientific curiosity and the visual arts by considering major artists (Leonardo, Durer, Vermeer, Rembrandt, etc). We will also consider the artfulness of visual materials we tend to classify as "scientific," including scientific imagery and diagrams, geographical maps, cabinets of curiosities, and new visual technologies such as the telescope and microscope.
