Wunsch is the man. Super nice and really cares about making classes engaging and interesting. Would highly recommend Nineteenth Century Art with him as your art core.

Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
An introduction to European and American art of the late eighteenth century to 1900. We will investigate the connections between art and contemporary developments, from the Industrial Revolution to globalization. The course will cover such artistic movements as Neoclassicism, Romanticism, Realism, Impressionism, and Post-Impressionism. Artists will include David, Goya, Turner, Monet, Van Gogh, and Rodin. We will look at their materials and techniques, and we will consider how they represented the issues animating their time: gender, race, class, technology, and power.
