This is "The Fall of Empire" by Thomas Cole, a 19th century American painter.
Use this picture as either the beginning, the middle or the end of a story that you create.
Start by doing a quick sketch of the painting, all of it or just part of it, in your history journal.
Next, on the same page write a story based on the picture. Write only the parts that are not the picture. For example, if you decide to make the picture the end of your story, then you would write the beginning and the middle. Then you would write see picture as the last line of your story. Each part of the story you write should be one paragraph.
This entire assignment must fit on one page of your journal, both the picture and the paragraphs.
Most students will have completed this assignment in class.
