How Art Made the World

In lieu of Election Day, I’ve decided to give you an extra credit opportunity.  Watch the video below, and write a reflection paper 2-3 pages (400-500 words) about how Roman Art was tied to politics.  Respond to the following questions: How did the Romans leverage the visual world for political power? Give examples from the video. Is art still used in the same way today? If so, cite specific examples (ie. where, when, who, and how). What do you think about art being used in this way?  What are your main takeaways from the video?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brW6GV6Rrco&feature=emb_title
