In times of triumph and tragedy artists have been the pulse and voice of society. In this presentation, based on her Elgin Community College course, Art History Instructor Amy Brandolino reviews artistic responses to disease and pandemics from ancient times to the current day. By examining these visual responses, we can gain insight into how art serves as a record of events, as well as a beacon of hope and healing during tragic times.
