Professor Garrison is great! She is very passionate about the course material and cares about the students' interest in the course as well. There are three papers that are around 5 pages long each throughout the semester. There is reading for each time you guys meet. I will say the readings are pretty heavy, so give urself some time to read those, she will also mix it up with some videos once in a while.

Court, Castle and Cathedral is a really interesting survey of Gothic architecture and art, and High and Late medieval art in general. Do note it is pretty much solely focused on religious art - it's really more of Cathedral, Cathedral and Cathedral. The class is very reading-heavy and the readings are pretty necessary, but there are no formal exams.
Incredible course. Prof. Packert is passionate, engaging, and deeply knowledgeable. Her lectures and discussions made Asian art feel alive and relevant. A great mix of visual analysis, history, and critical thinking. Highly recommend.
