Studying for Art History 1 from your own material

Students who want a prepared art history 1 quiz often find that ready-made sets cover a different textbook than the one in their course. A quiz built from your own lecture slides and reading list targets the works, dates and terms your exam will use.

Test identification of works by style, period and region rather than memorized titles alone.
Compare similar movements, such as Gothic and Romanesque architecture, side by side in your questions.
Keep a list of missed questions and retake them after a day or two.
Read the explanation even for correct answers to confirm the reasoning behind them.

Example Art History 1 quiz questions

Which Greek temple, built on the Athenian Acropolis in the 5th century BCE, is a classic example of the Doric order?The Parthenon. Its columns are fluted Doric columns with plain capitals and no bases.

Which Paleolithic cave site in France is known for large painted bison, horses and deer?Lascaux. Its painted animals date to roughly 17,000 years ago, which makes them an early example of sophisticated image making.

True or false: Gothic cathedrals relied on flying buttresses to carry the weight of the roof, allowing thinner walls and larger stained-glass windows.True. Flying buttresses moved the roof's outward thrust to external supports, so walls could open up for glass.

Why did Egyptian sculptors and painters work on a grid of fixed proportions?To keep figures in idealized, consistent proportions that suited religious and royal conventions.

What is contrapposto, and which Greek sculpture is a well-known example?A relaxed pose where the weight rests on one leg, shifting the hips and shoulders. Polykleitos' Doryphoros is a well-known example.

Most Art History 1 courses move from prehistoric and ancient art through medieval or early Renaissance work. Quizzes on this span work best when they ask you to identify a work by its visual features, such as the column order on a Greek temple or the pose of a standing figure, not only by its title.

Spacing practice over several days helps more than one long cram session. Retake the quiz, keep the questions you miss and review them again before the exam.
