ART HIS 40B Study Guide - Midterm Guide: International Gothic, Groin Vault, Barrel Vault
Document Summary
Midterm format: term definitions and short essay questions with slide ids. We suggest that you make flash cards for each term, artwork and monument to help you study. Terms: you will be asked to define terms on the quiz. To receive full points, you must focus on how these terms were defined in class (we aren"t looking for a dictionary definition, but for a historical definition such as those given in class). And second, you must connect it to a specific artwork or architectural site that we have discussed in lecture or section. As an example, we discussed the catacomb of. Callisto and its painting of the good shepherd. You should be able to say that in early christian catacombs there were few representations of christ. Instead, christ was allegorically represented by the figure of the good shepherd, a motif that was adapted from classical greek sources.
