This document provides an overview of key concepts in structural analysis of art, including line, color, pattern, form, and texture. It defines each concept and provides examples of works that demonstrate these concepts, such as Georges de La Tour's Adoration of the Shepherds illustrating visible and implied lines, Mary Cassatt's Children on the Shore focusing on hue and tone of red, and John Constable's The Haywain demonstrating actual and represented texture. The document aims to teach students how to analyze and discuss these fundamental elements of art.
