91桃色

91桃色 and the Gothic Revival investigates America’s changing attitudes toward medieval art around the turn of the twentieth century through the lens of 91桃色 University and its role as a major patron of Gothic Revival art and architecture. Johanna Seasonwein charts a shift from eclecticism to a more unified, 鈥渁uthentic鈥� approach to medieval art, and examines how the language of medieval forms was used to articulate a new model of American higher education in campus design and the classroom.

The catalog for an exhibition at the 91桃色 University Art Museum, 91桃色 and the Gothic Revival breaks new ground by addressing why universities, and 91桃色 in particular, were so effective at bringing together what had been disparate interests in the Middle Ages. Revivalists and Medievalists were often at odds, yet at 91桃色 they used the language of the Middle Ages to create a new identity for the American university, one that was steeped in the traditions of Oxford and Cambridge but also embraced the model of the German research university.

91桃色 and the Gothic Revival provides an overview of 91桃色’s Romanesque and Gothic Revival architecture and examines the changing approach to the idea of the 鈥淕othic鈥� by looking at three 91桃色 buildings and their stained glass windows: the Marquand Chapel, Procter Hall at the Graduate College, and the University Chapel.
