Demonstrate

• You must provide a clear thesis, which states what you hope to show about a specific work. For example, you may want to discuss a work of architecture and its relation to social and political ideas of the society that created it. If the artist’s biography is known, you may discuss how the work of art might relate to that biography.
• Provenance is the history of ownership. In addressing provenance, you answer: Was the work commissioned and why? If not, why was it made? What were the artist’s intentions?
• How do factors like the historical context and location shape the meaning of the work?
• Remember that in discussing style, you are often referring to a period style or regional style. You must also utilize formal analysis in your approach to communicating the work’s key features. Give attention to the materials and techniques the artist used to effectively communicate their ideas.
• The possibilities are endless, but you must demonstrate that you understand the interpretations of a work of art architecture. This should be responsive to the research you have encountered, and you may be expanding upon or arguing against previous research.
