historical art periods
Paper instructions:
Task:
A. Choose two art periods from the list above and write an essay (suggested length of 3–5 pages) in which you do the following:
1. Describe the earlier historical art period, characteristics of the style, and social conditions that may have contributed to the advent of this style.
2. Describe the later historical art period, characteristics of the style, and social conditions that may have contributed to the advent of this style.
3. Analyze the relationship between the historical art periods.
a. Explain similarities or differences between the historical art periods.
b. Explain the purpose for continuing the tradition of the earlier historical art period or deviating from it.
1. Reference at least one specific work of art from each period in your discussion.
2. Explain how the later work relates to the earlier work.
c. Explain the influence the later historical art period had on the art world (i.e., its historical significance).
Note: You should assume that your audience has a basic knowledge of the art periods. You will want to identify both periods in your essay and describe the art periods (time periods, characteristics, and social conditions that may have contributed to the advent of the styles of the period), but you will want to do so in a way that will allow your readers see how the descriptions support your thesis concerning the relationship between the two art periods.
B. When you use sources, include all in-text citations and references in APA format.
