Semester 2, Week 3: Triptychs

What's a triptych again?

 Look at these pictures closely--you will need to answer questions on them for this week's assignment!

To review from the assignment, a triptych is a group of three pictures with the theme that are displayed together. These pictures are usually arranged with a plain border between them.  They are often used to tell a story to the viewer. This can be accomplished in several different ways:

1.    Show the same subject over a period of time.
