Be sure to analyze the lines, colors, textures, space, and shapes you see in the painting. Finally, write an interpretation of the painting--in other words, explain what the painting says or communicates to you. What function, purpose or idea does the painting represent? You can see an example of this method of analysis at Goya Analysis at http://www.artmuseums.com/goya.htm.
