Learn how to sketch St. Peter’s Basilica with Professor Mark Keane

Hosted by Mark Keane

To conclude our week of programming on the arts, join Professor Mark Keane once again for an engaging, draw-along session focused on a masterpiece of Renaissance and baroque architecture—St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. Designed by a succession of legendary architects, from Michelangelo to Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the basilica is a testament to centuries of artistic vision. Professor Keane unpacks its architectural evolution and guides us through a hands-on drawing lesson, teaching us how to capture the iconic dome’s vast proportions on a two-dimensional page with perspective techniques. Learn about vanishing points and how to create depth and scale, just as master architects once did.
