The Department of the History of Art offers unique opportunities for the study of art history thanks to the university’s proximity to remarkable collections in Baltimore and Washington, D.C.
The graduate program in art history emphasizes close working relationships among students and faculty in seminars and concentrated, in-person study of works of art in the outstanding local collections.
Our faculty are experts in ancient Mediterranean, ancient Near East, European medieval, European Renaissance and early modern, ancient and early modern Americas, Islamic, South Asian, and modern and contemporary art and architectural history.
In small classes and informal excursions, undergrads integrate their direct experience of works of art with knowledge acquired through historical research.
