NU The Artist and The Work by Jean Simeon Chardin in 1748 Essay

I’m working on a art writing question and need an explanation to help me understand better.

Write a two-page paper, single-spaced, on a painting. Reference your syllabus for details. Be sure to do as much research as you can to understand the piece. Take a particular stand and try to interpret it in your own unique way. The more well-known the work, the more scholarly information you will find.

The paper should include: an opening paragraph about the artist and the work; a description of the work; an interpretation of the piece (along with personal impressions); defend your position and refute possible challenges; and a conclusion. Use citations, or footnotes, as normal.
