Question

what is one similarity between watteau’s pilgrimage to cythera and goya’s the third of may, 1808?
the artists use lively, expressive brushstrokes.
the artists depict politically charged historical events.
the artists create drama by using a single light source.
the artists use a dynamic configuration to unify the figures.

Explanation:

Watteau's Pilgrimage to Cythera uses soft, lively, expressive brushwork characteristic of Rococo, while Goya's The Third of May, 1808 employs loose, visceral brushstrokes to convey chaos. Neither work relies on a single light source, symmetrical figure arrangement, or (for Watteau) a politically charged historical event—Watteau's piece is an idyllic, fictional scene, not a real historical event.

Answer:

The artists use lively, expressive brushstrokes.
