Comparative Study
This is my Comparative Study, one of the three exam components in my IB Art course. In this study, I compared the formal elements and cultural influence between three paintings; "Wheatfeild with Cypress" by Van Gogh, "Green Valley with trees" by Ultagawa Hiroshige, and "View of Toledo".
