Facts vs. OpinionsThe clues that artists give us to
understand their artwork.
Fact or Opinion
• Facts are defined as something that is true or can be proven to be true or real or in existence.
• Opinions tend to be classified as viewpoints or judgments that cannot be proven to be true.
• Works of art assist with visualization of the rules that govern these contradicting notions.
