This Blog is for my Independent Study entitled Rhetoric of Adaptations of Art. In this independent study I will be researching famous artworks. At the end of the semester (for my final project) I will put all my findings together in a (large) research paper. In this paper/ what I plan to find in my research will include: the general information (i.e. Title, Artist, Date, Subject Matter, Style, and Significance), elaborating on any misconceptions about the piece; and the painting's use in popular culture.
Each week I will be posting my research/observations on this blog of 1 or 2 of the pieces I plan to research.
