a brief history of art

For my masters program in art history, I was required to take a placement exam on what would have been three survey courses of art history, covering multiple regions and eras. To study, I made drawings of the works from the suggested survey text on flash cards. As a whole, these flash cards ask what we consider important to art history and the representation of art history, why we categorize history the way we do, and what makes a work recognizable or memorable. Also, some of them are funny.

"pre-history" to 1100 CE
