Instructions
One of the most common functions of art is to tell stories. This is especially true of Greek mythology, which has a long history in art from vase paintings to oil paintings. Mythology works a little like the telephone game in which a phrase is gradually changed the more it is repeated by different people. In their retelling, every storyteller adds their own twist to the story often reflecting different cultural values and ideals. This means that any myth could have an endless array of variations and interpretations. In this assignment, you will use the outline you wrote in Step #1 to write an essay that compares both objects using formal analysis. Your paper must have the following: an introduction paragraph with a thesis statement, a formal analysis that supports that thesis, and a conclusion paragraph that reinforces that thesis and provides any additional interpretation to the reader.
Step 2: Write your paper
Using your reviewed and edited outline, write your paper. As you write your paper, make sure you have a strong introduction that sets up your topic and thesis statement, providing any background information about the myth or images necessary to understand your analysis. Specifically, you should introduce your two images by name, introduce the topic (the myth), and establish your thesis statement. Your introduction should be around 150 to 200 words long.
For your supporting analysis, remember to utilize the relevant vocabulary you have already learned and effectively transition from one point to another. Effective transitions help you connect the individual points of your argument to one another and to the argument as a whole. The Purdue

Your paper should end with a strong conclusion that wraps up any of your points, reinforces the argument, and provides any additional interpretation you would like to leave your reader. The conclusion should be 150 to 200 words long and not have any new points or supporting information.
