Answer the following question in 3-4 complete sentences. Define montage and its process. Look at the 3 photographs above. Explain their relationship, including why they are an example of photomontage.

Answer:

A montage is a composition made by combining separate images or parts of images into one unified picture. To make one, the artist selects and cuts out parts of photographs, then arranges and layers them together, often using digital editing. Photo 1 shows a bird, and Photo 2 shows a field of wildflowers. The bird has been placed into the field to create Photo 3, making it a photomontage because it combines elements from separate photographs.
