If we want to be able to describe the attributes of a work of art and be able to express our reactions to it, we shall see how the elements of art, such as a line, colors, and shape, are composed into a work of art. I will cover the three of them representational, abstract, and nonrepresentational and having style, form, and iconography. I choose this piece of art Dieric Bouts’s Mater Dolorosa, I will explain why it is best as representational, and I will provide an analysis of its style, form, and iconography. First, one could also say that the representational art refers to art that represents people or objects in something of recognizable form, those images look very much like images in the natural world. An example of representational art, is Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa (1503-06).
