Karen, an art reviewer for a magazine, wrote a critique of this painting. In a part of the critique, she wrote, “There are layers of contrast. The woman’s red and blue costume contrasts strongly with the background. The plump, pink bodies of the two cherubs also contrast with the blue of the woman’s costume in the foreground.” Which step of the critique do these statements represent?

Raphael's painting, The Madonna of the Meadow (1505)

A.
judgment
B.
description
C.
analysis
D.
interpretation

Because Judgement would be when they give an exact answer like it's bad or it's ok when they finish the analysis which is when they give out the details, and description should just be like the lady has a red and blue costume, and interpretation should be like how they intrepret it, IDK how to explain im sry, it's been a while since I did art again, well 1 year

Answer:

C). Analysis.

Explanation:

'Critique' is elucidated as the literary technique in which the readers study a work carefully, analyze it meticulously, and evaluates it critically in order to reach a reasonable and justifiable conclusion, judgment, or deduction about it.

As per the question, the 'analysis' step of critique is presented through the steps mentioned here as these points imply that Karen has assessed or investigated the details of the work deeply. This is reflected through descriptions like 'layers of contrast', 'contrast of women's red and blue costume with the background', 'the colors of bodies of cherubs in contrast to the women's costume', etc. These details imply that she has examined every small detail of the work to reach a worthy and valuable conclusion(i.e. 'review' that she wrote) about the artwork. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
