In addressing provenance, you answer: Was the work commissioned and why? If not, why was it made? What were the artist's intentions? • How do factors like the historical context and location shape the meaning of the work? • Remember that in discussing style, you are often referring to a period style or regional style. You must also utilize formal analysis in your approach to communicating the work's key features.  Give attention to the materials and techniques the artist used to effectively communicate their ideas. • The possibilities are endless, but you must demonstrate that you understand the interpretations of a work of art architecture.

Your endnotes should be on their own page, as well as your bibliography. You don't need to fill these two pages, but they should be on separate pages at the end of your paper.
