About

This quiz thoroughly examines Etruscan and Roman art and architecture, covering the essential visual analysis skills and historical knowledge required for AP Art History Unit 3. The questions assess students' understanding of archaeological evidence, architectural techniques, artistic media, and cultural contexts spanning from Etruscan civilizations through the Roman Empire. Students need to demonstrate mastery of technical vocabulary including architectural terms like basilica, coffer, and fenestrated sequence of groin vaults, as well as artistic concepts such as veristic portraiture and the four styles of Pompeian wall painting. The quiz requires comprehensive knowledge of specific monuments including the Pantheon, Colosseum, Trajan's Forum and Column, and the Alexander Mosaic, along with understanding of Roman domestic architecture, imperial propaganda, and the cultural significance of portraiture and public spaces. This quiz was created by a classroom teacher who designed it for students studying Advanced Placement Art History in grades 10-12. The assessment serves as an excellent review tool for reinforcing the complex visual and contextual analysis skills that define collegiate-level art historical study. Teachers can deploy this quiz as a comprehensive unit review before the AP exam, as formative assessment to gauge student readiness, or as structured homework to reinforce lecture and textbook content. The question format mirrors AP exam expectations by requiring students to identify, compare, and analyze works within their historical and cultural contexts. This assessment aligns with College Board standards for AP Art History, specifically addressing Learning Objectives 1, 2, and 4 which emphasize visual analysis, contextual understanding, and cross-cultural connections in the study of global art traditions.
