From the battles of the Trojan War to the love affairs among the gods and mortals, the ancient Greeks and Romans depicted their favorite mythological episodes through visual representations. In this course, we will explore mythology through the medium of ancient art. We will use the iconography to investigate the significance of the ancient myths, which will be read in translation. Additionally, we will visit the Walters to examine the collection of mythological images in art.
