A formal analysis of a work of art.

Conduct a formal analysis of an artwork using the four aspects of critical analysis described in chapter four
of your textbook. Choose one of the three images below and write a formal analysis of the art work in four
paragraphs. Follow these guidelines:

1. Begin by describing the work in detail, addressing the questions posed in section “4.3.1 Description” of
   your textbook. Use the information covered in module 2 on the elements of art and design. Describe only.
   Avoid conclusions.
2. Next analyze how the elements are put to use in the artwork. How are they arranged or composed?
   Refer to section “4.3.2 Analysis” in your textbook reading. Also review the design principles covered in
   module 3.
3. Interpret the work. This should be your own interpretation not something you find on the internet. This is
   you the viewer interacting with the work, your subjective reading.
4. Finally, give an evaluation of the work, make a judgement. Be sure to give specific and well thought out
   reasons for your evaluation. It is not enough to state that you like it, or that you think it is good or bad.
   Preferred language style Simple (Easy vocabulary, simple grammar constructions)
