Question

What can be observed from this painting? Check all that apply.

Answer 1

The things that could be observed from a painting are that it is a portrait of a man, it shows visible brush strokes, and displays bold colors.

Even though there was no attached painting, we would be able to see these things within the painting. You can see what is contained in the painting, how it was painted, and what colors the painting is. However, you can not see when a painting was created or know that it is part of a large collection by simply looking at the painting.
