Write the Individual Project (3–4 pages, not including references). Using the terminology and concepts that you are learning for evaluating art, including materials used, style, meaning, and symbolism, and any other aesthetic issues, compare and contrast 1 of the selected works from the selected Web sites classification with a different work of art of the same classification from your textbook. For example, compare 2 paintings from the Renaissance period or 2 gothic cathedrals. Use the following instructions to construct your paper. For each of the works of art, describe and compare attributes of the works by following the guidelines below to structure your essay.

Is it a 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional work of art?
What materials are used?
What techniques or processes are used to create the artwork?
