Question: Who wrote the document? Is it a specific person or someone whose identity you can merely infer from the context of the document (for example, a parent writing to a child, a traveler writing home)? When and where was it written? Why was the document written? Is there a clear purpose, or are multiple interpretations possible? Who was, or who might have been, its intended audience? What point of view does it reflect? What can the document tell us about the individual who produced it and the society from which he or she came?

Who made the image or artifact, and how was it made? When and where was the image or artifact made? Who paid for or commissioned it? How can you tell? For what audience might it have been intended? Where might it have originally been displayed or used? What message or messages is it trying to convey? How could it be interpreted differently depending on who viewed or used it? What can this visual source tell us about the individual who produced it and the society from which he or she came?
