Museum Paper – Artwork
Details are in the doc document. 1)What attracted you to this particular artwork? Remember to state the name of the artist, title, and date. Please italicize art titles. 2)Give a contextual analysis by answering the following questions: What period and culture is it from? Why was the artwork originally made? Is there an obvious message (i.e. political, social, religious)? You may include brief biographical information about the artist if it adds to the contextual analysis, but this is not a biographical paper. 3)Analyze it compositionally: How is the composition structured and arranged? What terms can be used to describe the style or appearance of the artwork (i.e. abstract, naturalistic, idealized, etc.)? Please note the medium and technique used in the artwork as well.
