The rest of the chapter is devoted to looking at six different artists and different critic descriptions/interpretations of these artists' works. Each of these sections show how in describing artwork, critics often include a mixture of biographical/historical context, pure emotional description of the pieces, an interpretation of the artists' subject, and a tone of approval/disapproval. An emphasis is placed upon the fact that most critics' descriptions are done in a positive, lively manner.
