The travelers were wealthy young men and women from northern Europe and especially Britain. The purpose of the tour was to further their education in classical art, culture, and history. Following the discovery of Herculaneum (1738) and Pompeii (1748) there was an increase in the number of travelers on the tour. During the Napoleonic wars (1799-1815) the tour became less popular because it was difficult to travel. The travelers did not follow a specific route and travel took much longer than it does today. The British had to cross the English Channel to get to Paris. It took about a month and some became seasick. After visiting the major sites in Paris, the travelers might go to other cities in France and continue to Italy. Italy was the most important destination of the Grand Tour because seeing the classical, Renaissance, and Baroque sculptures, paintings, and monuments furthered their education. Florence, Naples, Rome, and Venice were among the most popular cites to visit there. Some travelers went to Germany, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Russia, and Turkey, but it was less common than travel to Italy. An industry developed to accommodate the travelers including food and lodging, entertainment, and the production of souvenirs. The wealthiest travelers could purchase ancient sculptures, cameos, oil lamps, vases, and other objects. Many others purchased views of cities known as vedutes done by artists such as Canaletto and “Robert of the Ruins.” Some travelers commissioned portraits of themselves. Others purchased folios of prints of ancient works of art and architecture done by Piranesi, Adams, and others. The primary sources were diaries, letters, novels, and poems written by the tourists. These materials provide us with information about the tours. The travelers did not always intend for their diaries to become public. In addition to viewing beautiful monuments, the travelers experienced some mishaps such as sickness, robbery, and others. 1. Please select a work of art from the list in CANVAS. 2. RESEARCH: You will also be expected to read the articles located in the group project module in CANVAS and read materials from the TCC library and Library Course Guide. The bibliography below is a good place to start and a number of these books are on reserve in the library. You will find more sources as you research your topic. Many physical qualities of monuments cannot be seen in small slides of them. You should watch videos about your site in the TCC library’s collection (films on demand), use artstor to find images, and use google earth to compare the buildings in the vedutes to the actual site, and use the UNECSO site (World Heritage List) in order to gain a better experience of the monuments. note: This is not a biography on the artist. You do not need to repeat the artist’s life story. The only ‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍information that is relevant to the assignments are the dates that the artist was in the city of your work of art and the traveler who purchased your painting. 3. Research Paper: You are required to use two quotes about your site from the primary sources in your presentation and research paper. The research paper must have citations (footnotes) and a bibliography (Chicago Style), and must be typed (no larger than 12-point font and 1 ¼” margins, and double spaced).
