Demonstrate understanding of links between context(s) and art works
You need to show you understand how the contexts (historical, social, cultural, political, religious, etc.) that artists lived and worked in shaped the art they made. You'll pick some artworks and explain what was happening in the world around the artist and how that affected what they created and what it means.
You identify relevant contexts around the artworks and spot basic links between what was happening in the world and what appears in the art.
You describe the contexts in detail and clearly explain the links using specific visual evidence from the artworks to support your points.
You analyze why and how the contexts shaped the art deeply, explaining the connections with well-chosen evidence from the works and showing sophisticated understanding of cause and effect between context and meaning.
