We mostly tried to analyze the historical context of the piece. We focused mainly on what it may have symbolized in the culture that it was created in; for example, hypothesizing its purpose among the indigenous people.
The analysis of the formal attributes and the subject matter could have been more in-depth. We could have thought about what some of the artistic choices could have meant; e.g., what was the design on the ladle and what kind of purpose or meaning did it serve.
If we had more time, we should have spent some time describing what the piece looked like in the introduction. We also should have talked a bit more about the formal attributes and subject matter so we could tie the aesthetic portion of the ladle to its meaning.
