Art history classes can be a tad overwhelming when it comes to studying. We have to study not only the works of art and their history but also the artists and their history plus all the dates and titles. Fortunately, this semester both the art history courses I am enrolled in do not focus so much on specific dates and titles, so that takes some pressure off. When it comes to studying I have a strict method that I picked up in my very first art history course ever and I am going to share my method with everyone! It is no secret and I am sure others take part in this method as well even though it is quite an effort and uses a lot of paper.
I have had three art history courses so far and my method has worked swell for all three courses. It is a lot of work but it helps me personally remember the specifics. Plus it is a great way to stay organized and keep the information forever!
