Answer the following question in 3-4 complete sentences. Look closely at the painting above. What is the vantage point, or the point of focus? How do you know what the vantage point is? Think about the other parts of the piece and how they interact with the point of focus.

Answer:

The vantage point is the man and woman dancing in the center. All the other figures in the painting are either looking at the man and woman, or their bodies are directed towards them. All the other people are close together, while the man and woman are spaced out and distanced from the other people. The angles of the furniture and room also lead the eye to the man and women.
