Much of analysis that we did were based on physical observations. We incorporated our knowledge of contextual history in an attempt to understand not only the art but also the artist’s motivations. A fantastic example would be Noblewoman, a piece from the Roman period. We analyzed the subject’s beautiful – and perhaps expensive – earrings as an indication of her wealth. The analysis that we wish would have done more is the examination of the artist’s techniques in creating his or her pieces. If we had more time, we wish we could have done more of a technical analysis of the works of art.
