Obsah kurzu

The course focuses on an analysis of pictorial forms in the history of Western Painting. Key elements of such an analysis are the understanding of a composition, proportions, use of colour and use of light. The historical context of specific pictures cannot be neglected completely otherwise it would be impossible to follow artistic intention and will therefore be presented as well.
