Getting Started*

This research guide will help Prof. Guest's ART 202 classes find the best research available for the Patronage Project.


​The Patronage Project requires you to imagine commissioning any work of art from the 14th century to present. Since you are able to pick any work of art during this period- pick one that inspires you. Research is a lot easier when the subject is one you find interesting!

 You may want to look through your textbook or a book from the "Find Books" tab on the left for some ideas. Once you have decided upon an artist or work of art, you are ready to begin your research!
