Answer to Question 1

Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. Mannerism is a consciously artificial style. In Bronzino's painting, the figures are elongated and distorted.
2. The large figures are placed in a too-shallow space.
3. Ambiguous space and distortion is seen, for instance, in the distance separating Cupid's shoulders and head.
4. Colors are bright and clashing.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The painting employs sensual color and light in its soft, luminous landscape, and its subject is mysterious.
