As ludicrous as it may sound, this is a one page overview of Western art. The idea is to show how political, social, and technological factors affected, and were affected by, developments in art. There is an example of each school of art that is being discussed on that slide.
Note: There are separate powerpoints on each art movement discussed here, typically opening with this flowchart up to the time that is being discussed.
This is a self-contained PowerPoint that develops slide by slide. It can be run as a timed presentation on its own, presented slide by slide for discussion, or integrated into your other lectures.

For the last 27 years, I have taught at University High School, in Urbana, Illinois. During this time I have created a 4-year world history curriculum that breaks down as follows: Subfreshmen (7th and 8th grades combined): Prehistory and ancient civilizations, including India, China, and Japan. Freshmen: Western civilization and the Islamic world to 1500 Sophomores: World history from 1500 to 1945 Seniors: the world since 1945. All of these, except the senior course are required. The elective senior course is consistently filled to capacity of 30, usually with a waiting list.
