Note
When you write about works of art always identify the work by naming the artist and title of the work. For all factual information used in your responses cite the text page, name the book, or website using in-text citations in the MLA style. Include your own ideas. These should be introduced with a phrase such as "I think," or "one can see." Use your critical thinking skills. Each paragraph should have a minimum of five substantial sentences.
