  • Your task today is to choose a Dorothea Lange photograph to analyze. You can find one at the The History Place.
  • Once you have chosen a photograph, open a Google Doc (name and share it with us immediately) and paste the photo in. Then go through the three steps of visual analysis. Each step should be about a paragraph.
  • For step three, the "formal" analysis, use the elements and principles of composition to help you.
  • For full instructions for this activity, go HERE.
