Your assignment is to read the article available below in a PDF.
In 2-3 pages, summarize her main points (no fewer than 700 words).
Specifically, consider and describe how the painting is a lesson for the bride and, from the perspective of defending that interpretation, how does Zirpolo defend/support her position?
In other words, it is not enough to simply state how this painting can be interpreted — how does she argue that Botticelli’s contemporaries read the painting as she does?
