Here are your professor's requirements for your assignment:

Start with what you know.

• Highlight or list all "clues" about your work of art, the artist, the time period, the style, and the viewer.

• Use the Metropolitan Museum of Art website to look at the details associated with the art and add them to your notes.

♦ Search the Met:

  Browse by Collection OR Conduct Keyword Searches

• Begin a list of keywords and key concepts that you will research. Be broad at this point - you will want to explore several aspects of the work of art before settling on the research question that you will write about.
