Our analysis is primarily formal properties. We mainly talk about what we see in the painting, and try to give a reason about why it is that way – why the colors were there, and why the shapes were placed that way. It was an abstract piece so we couldn’t go too in depth about certain properties, so we mainly focused on how it made us feel. We didn’t do any historical analysis, even though we tried to relate it to the great depression, but the timing didn’t match up. If we had more time it would’ve been interesting to relate it to the artist’s life and time time period that he lived in.
