The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Art historians use a historical method or a philosophy, such as historical materialism or critical theory, to analyze artworks.
- Among other topics, they study art's impact on societies and cultures, the relationship between art and politics, and how artistic styles and formal characteristics of works of art have changed throughout history.
- As a discipline, art history is distinguished from art criticism, which is concerned with establishing a relative artistic value for critiquing individual works, and aesthetics, which is a branch of philosophy.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Art history article was read about 55,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 47: each hit it takes is cut by 19 %.
