LET'S DESCRIBE SOME PAINTINGS:

We are going to write paragraphs to describe some paintings (each group will choose one).

First, look at it very carefully and observe the details.

After that, answer the next questions as a guide to describe it.

• Who painted the picture?
• What do you know about the artist? (brief biography)
• When was the picture painted?
• Who is in the painting?
• What were the people in the picture doing when the artist painted them?
• What can you see in the foreground?
• What can you see in the background?
• Do you see any clues in the foreground or in the background?
• What do they mean?
• Can you give any more details about the historial period the painting shows?

These are the pictures you'll have to describe:
