Weekly Group Assignment (4/30)
As a group, analyze the work of art you have been assigned. Attempt to identify the artist, subject, culture, and approximate time period of the work using visual evidence and your own knowledge of history and art. Do not simply list off facts you have found through Google. Support any conclusions you come to with specific details from the work. Discuss anything you may find interesting in the piece such as potential symbols, connections with other works, or artistic virtuosity.
