To contextualize and critique the resulting artistic dialogues, noting connections to imperialism and colonialism, we'll look closely at three monarchs: Elizabeth I in England, Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II in Prague, and the Qianlong Emperor in Qing China. We'll examine how these rulers influenced and responded to cross-cultural interactions at their courts - and how they used the arts to legitimize their rule.
