Now that you have read the "Starter Kit" in your AP Art History textbook, you should be familiar with the information and concepts that support the study of art history. Understanding the terms in the Starter Kit will help you discuss, write about, and appreciate artwork. Using these terms freely with purpose is essential to this course.
