Visual Literacy


Here is John Collier's "Clytemnestra, After Murdering Agamemnon."  Spend some time looking at the painting and consider these questions:

  • What is the tone of the picture?
  • What aspects enhance the tone?
Next you'll choose one of the images below to examine in a blog post of your own:


Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks at the Diner"


Grant Wood's "American Gothic"


Archibald Motley's "Nightlife"


Diego Rivera's "The Flower Carrier"


Georgia O'Keeffe's "Ram's Head White Hollyhock and Little Hills"
