Week 1, q.3: Field TRIP!

Let's go to an art museum. Go to the attached website and explore the Panoramas. As you visit the different pages, take notes on the techniques and "rhetorical" strategies employed by panoramas of different time-periods and different subjects. In your first post, summarize the virtual museum's exhibition. What is it about, what did you learn, etc.

In your second post, link to the panorama (or thematic group) that resonates with you the most, explain why, and note how the format of panoramas applies to this picture or group of pictures.
