Compare and Contrast
Write an essay comparing and contrasting the narrative aspects of “La Moulin de la Galette” by Pierre Auguste Renoir on page 506 and “The Day of the Gods” by Paul Gauguin on page 509. Include the title of each
work, the artist who created it, and the page number on which it
appears in the textbook.
Your essay focuses on the narrative aspects of the works you select. Be
sure to focus on the narrative, contextual, distinctively cultural character of the stories
conveyed by the works — not just their general observable themes. In order
to analyze their cultural narratives, you will need background information on
the selected works, beyond what you can see just by looking.
You should include at least one outside source beyond your textbook and commentaries to support your discussion.Just be sure
to cite in MLA style and do not copy
someone else’s analysis word for
word. Stay focused on cultural narratives. Use background information to provide a context for analyzing the cultural narratives conveyed by the
works you select.

You compare and contrast the narrative aspects of the selected works. To
compare means to analyze the way the works’ narratives are similar. To
contrast means to analyze the way their narratives are different.
Comparing and contrasting are easiest if you select works of art with this
in mind. For example, you might select works that are similar in content,
but they come from different cultures or different time periods.

You use a minimum of five vocabulary words that were introduced in
this lesson. This is the same idea as
the previous writing assignment. You
do not have to use every word that
appears in bold type in the commentary and/or textbook, but use at least five
of the words to demonstrate that you understand what they mean. For example: “Nude
Descending a Staircase, No. 2 shocked audiences with its abstract qualities”. Put your vocabulary in bold text.
.
If you do not bold the text then
we will not be able to determine which vocabulary you are targeting in
your discussion and you may lose points from your grade.
Include a citation for each work of art you select. Please use MLA style.
Include citations within the text of the essay as well as in a works
references
page.

Your essay is at least 750 words and has been checked for spelling and
grammar errors. An essay
of less than 750 words is unlikely to
demonstrate an understanding of the concepts in this lesson.

Vocab words- Naturalism, Photorealistic, Realism, Representational, Non-Representational, Abstract, Iconoclasts, Content, Symbols

One Citation must include the text: A World of Art Seventh Edition by Henry M Sayre
