5th and 6th Grade: November 30, 2016

In class today, we finished our unit about Las Meninas.  As a class, we posed (again!) to take a Las Meninas picture.  We also looked at another artist's interpretation of the painting.

Ask your student:
  • What is this painting all about?  What is going on?  (Because Las Meninas is such a well known painting in Spanish art, many other artists have copied the painting and given it their own interpretation.  This is one of Pablo Picasso's many takes on the painting.  Can you find/identify everyone?) 
    Picasso, Pablo.  Las Meninas (Group).  1957.  Museu Picasso, Barcelona.
