subject (for example, fruit, flowers, a biblical story, a lovers? meeting, prostitutes, nudes, soldiers, etc.) .
These two works can be from the same or different historical periods. With regard to the two works, incorporate
the following considerations into you argument: What similarities do the two works share, and can they be
accounted for historically? Secondly, what are some important differences between the two works and can they be
accounted for historically, or do they differ mainly because of each individual artist?s approach to or
interpretation of the subject? What does each artist emphasize about the subject or theme as the result of his or
her approach or interpretation? Does one of the artists have a more successful rendering of the theme or subject?

means of coming up with a working thesis statement.)
