The article that i had to do research on is called "Newly discovered Van Gogh painting kept in Norwegian attic for years" by mark brown. The article is about the discovery of a new van gogh painting found in a attic called "Sunset at Montmajour". Since it was a painting by van gogh the article that i used to relate is called "van gogh's night visions" by Paul Trachtman. It relates to the article because it talks about how the painter was enterested in light. Also, it relates becuse it talks about what he got his insperating painting ideas from, facts about vans personality, and how he got some of his visions. This is how I related the two articles.

This article that I had to do research on is called “Spanish artist Cecilia Gimenez to share riches from botched restoration of a painting of Christ”. The article is on an 82 year old woman who botched a Christ painting a year ago. I looked up the painting to use it to relate it to the article. The article “Despite Good Intentions, a Fresco in Spain is ruined” relates to the article because it is about the painting that the old lady had botched. The painting in the article is called behold the man and it is referring to Jesus. This is my relation to the Spanish article.
