Essay Question #1: Define the word Realism and tell how we see the qualities of Realism in the work of Gustave Courbet.

Essay Question # 2: Write an honest evaluation of the course. What where your expectations coming into the course. Were your expectations met? What did you get out of the course? What aspect of the class did you enjoy? What aspects did you find unpleasant? What suggestions would you give me for what I could do differently in the future?

As long as you are honest (even if it involves criticisms) and as long as you write more than a couple of short sentences, you can get full credit for this essay question.
