What are some of the shared ideas or values that you see expressed, both in Rococo or Neoclassical art and in contemporary society? Discussion 3 Choose a work of art from the Romantic period that depicts Revolution/war (or anything related to it). Discuss the following: How do the formal qualities convey mood/tone/emotion? How are you (the viewer) encouraged to feel about this depiction and its participants (e.g., are you encouraged to take sides, be impartial, feel pity for/anger towards anyone)? Discussion 4Choose an Impressionist work of art that illustrates a significant cultural influence on its creation and discusses its historical context. How did the culture in which the work was created influence the work? (What particular ideologies played a role in its creation and where do you see this influence reflected in the work you chose?)
