Lecture 8 Roman & Judean Art
Before you get started on the Pantheon, I want to warn you there are TWENTY-TWO slides of it.
Actually, there were only eighteen, but Mrs. M. added 4 special ones at the end. (Sorry about that.)
(And you haven’t even gotten to the INSIDE of the Pantheon yet.)
Here comes the oculus. If you don’t already know what an “oculus” is, you will by the end of this lecture.
