 The examination for all students expecting to graduate at any date in 2004 will be given on Sunday, February 1st at 1 p.m.in Room 113 of the Jaffe Building. A sign-up sheet will be posted outside the departmental office.

 The examination will reflect the full range of art history taught by the department.

 The Format of the Examination:

Provide these four pieces of information about each object or site.
• 1. Name of artist if known
• 2. Name of object
• 3. The location of the object if fixed; its regional or national school if portable.
• 4. The absolute date of the object and art historical period.

• Identify each slide as in Part I, making sure to note which is on the left and which on the right. Compare and contrast the slides in a short essay.

 A selection of broad questions will be offered. These will ask for the elucidation of major topics or issues in art history, based on a discussion of a small number of carefully chosen examples.
