First thing first, you are going to need some paper. You are going to be answering questions and yes, copying aspects of famous paintings onto that paper. This is for 15pts and is due at the end of class.

What makes a painting in the style of Romanticism?

Go online and google around, find a painting painted outside of the US that is an example of Romanticism. Record the name of the painting and the artist so that you can find it later. Draw a rectangle or square on your paper and sketch out what you see in the painting. Then under the sketch explain what is going on in the painting and why this is Romanticism.

Realism emerged as a reaction to Romanticism. Why do you think this happened, why would painters reject Romanticism's ideals and instead...

Find a painting online that is an example of Realism (that was painted in Europe). Record the name of the painting and the artist so that you can find it later. Again, please sketch it out. Then underneath explain how and why this painting is an example of Realism.

Impressionism developed as a reaction against Realism, photography, and Romanticism, why was it such a bold move at the time?

Again search for an Impressionistic painting (done anywhere). Record the name of the painting and the artist so that you can find it later. Sketch out the painting and explain what is going on in this painting and why is it Impressionism.

Then put your art on my desk with your NAME on it.
