Iconic Works of Art History
About
Works of art and architecture deemed to be “canonical”, typically due to their broad influence, display in prominent museum collections, and extensive scholarship. While the art-historical canon has come under harsh critique since the latter part of the the 20th century, particularly with regard to its treatment of class, race, and gender, others see it as a crucial starting point and foundation for learning about and discussing art.
