Teaching in the first semester, review in January
Schedule
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
The following areas are taken up: drawing, painting, engraving, sculpture, glassmaking, stained glass, silver-work and tapestry. With regard to each area, information about materials, tools, the practice of technical operations and the manner in which these determine the appearance of a work of art are considered.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
To give a theoretical insight into classical artistic techniques; to understand the restrictions that they place upon the creative act, the possibilities that they open and the effects that they produce. This knowledge is required to study the history and aesthetics of works of art, as they allow for the style to be more precisely characterised, and to approach problems relating to their conservation.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
None, other than the general requirements for the study of History of Art and Archaeology and the abilities expected of a Master student in Philosophy and Letters (for foreign students: sufficient knowledge of the French language). Practical training in the techniques studied is not necessary but it would be an advantage.
