*DISCLAIMER*: Before I dive into the criteria and the rest of the specifics for this paper, let me inform you of my artifact of choice that this paper is about. So, I chose the Portrait of Wally, which was painted in 1912 by Egon Schiele, an Austrian painter. I am not quite sure if this particular artifact possesses the depth needed in order to write a 1,200 word paper on it, however, let me know either way. If it doesn’t, in your opinion, and you cannot discover any useful scholarly sources, then please feel free to choose an article of history that DOES have some sort of significant backstory or argument available. Anyways, keep me updated and thank you for taking the time to help me.
This project will increase your proficiency with historical research methods, including locating artifact(s) and exploring archival databases, as well as improve your skills in analyzing information from primary and secondary sources.
