Composition
Colors
Lines
Perspective/Flatness
Technique
Materiality

Part 2: Compare the two works you have chosen from a contextual perspective (4 pages):
What do these works say about the subject they represent?
How do they say what they say in different ways?
Do they complement each other?
Does one add to what the other says?

ESSAY STRUCTURE
The overall length of this assignment is 8 pages excluding the bibliography, your name and title, and images. Please write the paper first and then add the images to make sure you don’t get the total page number mixed up. Marks are detracted if you submit a paper shorter than 8 or exceeding 10 pages. The essay must be spaced at 1.5pt, the font must 12pts, ‘Arial’.
INTRODUCTION
The introduction should not take more than one page. Keep bio info to a minimum, 4 lines for both artists, and focus on explaining why you have chosen these works of art–what do they share, how are they similar?
MAIN BODY
This is where you have to showcase your analytical skills–overall length 3/4 pages. This is your analysis. Make it interesting and relevant. You have two options:
1) Analyze all the points listed above one by one in one work of art and then separately do the same for the other.
2) Use each point to analyze both works of art at the same time: ex: analyze the composition in both, then move on to colors in both and so on. This is more difficult than option 1 and will carry more points.
3) Contextual analysis
CONCLUSION
Wrap up your essay with some smart considerations about the two photographs you have analyzed. Which is the one you find more interesting and why? How do the formal quality of the artwork impact or convey meaning? The overall length of the conclusion should not be more than 1page.
Your essay must comply with generic academic prescriptions such as footnoting, referencing, and bibliography. You should not use more than 2 Internet sources and should include at least a minimum of 5 different sources. Images must be included and labeled accordingly, specifying the artist’s name, the title of work, materials, and year of execution. The bibliography must be alphabetically ordered by surname. You are expected to use referencing correctly. Every time you read information somewhere in order to write your work it is important to reference the source–otherwise, you’ll be committing plagiarism.
