She frames our understanding of the historical and social context of the piece as well as the background of the artist.
From the tiniest of details to the broadest cultural implications and meanings, Art History 101helps us see why these works of art are considered masterpieces. In completing the full course, one sees how each piece contributes to a larger portrait - the full narrative of art history through the ages.
