Art History is a good broadener of the mind. I originally was going to do Classics with Art History, but did full Classics as seduced by Greek. No surprise but I'm quite into Italian Renaissance, which has a lot of Classical influences. Go for it, you won't regret it.Originally posted by cojak View Post
