TOP REVIEWS FROM ROMAN ARCHITECTURE
Absolutely loved the course! It was inspiring and insightful and my only regret is not being able to take another course, about Roman Sculpture, which is not available on-line.
The teacher is very engaging and I have learned to distinguish different stiles in architecture, painting and sculpture in relation to different ages of Roman History.
a very good course if you're interested in history and theory of architecture. helps in understanding and appreciating the philosophies used in roman architecture!
