On my art brief sheet, it asks for subject matter and place of execution... what do they mean?

Question

Heya!

My art brief sheet requires me to talk about a painting.

It lists some topics down like subject matter, atmosphere, colour, etc. but I don't get what they mean by these two topics:

-Subject Matter

-Place of Execution

Is Subject matter like, the things that the painting is focused on?

And is place of execution the place that it was painted in?

I'm confused. Thanks if you reply! =]

Answer 1

Yes and yes!

Subject matter: bowl of fruit

Place of execution: indoors, studio/kitchen/study...
