353. Castles, Cathedrals and Monasteries
The art of the Western medieval world from the 11th to the 13th centuries. Special attention paid to the Romanesque monastic pilgrimage sites, their architecture and decorations; to the castles of northern Europe, their construction and design; and to the great cathedrals of Gothic France, their architecture, sculpture and stained glass. Social, political and economic factors involved in the production of this art are stressed.
