FC.077B The Age of Baroque

This 104 slide PowerPoint starts with the part of Flowchart 77 dealing with Baroque art. It then looks at the work of Caravaggio, Velasquez, and then the Dutch masters, Vermeer, Hals and Rembrandt, as well as the "little masters" who largely focused on particular genres. (Note: the French Baroque is dealt with in FC.94 on Richelieu. This comes as a timed presentation that I run with music of the period to set the mood.

This is a self-contained PowerPoint that develops slide by slide while other notes for the students scroll down the side. It can be run as a timed presentation on its own, presented slide by slide for discussion, or integrated into your other lectures. There are also extensive pictures with captions mixed in to illustrate the lesson and capture students’ interest. This packet also contains a student reading, flowchart, and the author’s own research notes which contain lots of details and interesting trivia to spice up your class.
NOTE: If this Powerpoint doesn’t come in the new color scheme, it comes with one slide that has the whole flowchart in the newer color scheme, if you want to convert the other slides. I’m in the process of converting all the Powerpoints to the new color scheme over the next year. Check the free preview to see if this particular lesson has been converted yet.
