In this course we shall study how certain art forms were transmitted and adapted by the Europeans engaged in the colonization of North America from the 16th to 19th centuries. In particular, we shall explore how men and women who worked in painting, sculpture, and the graphic arts responded to notions of national identity and representative governance that informed the founding of the United States, the Mexican Republic and the Dominion of Canada. |
