Need help with contextual study for art and design?

I'm in my second year of sixth form doing Graphics. I have written a contextual study that details how illustration has changed in the last couple of centuries with regards to childrens narratives and stories, so I have included research based upon the likes of John Tenniel "Alice in Wonderland", Quentin Blake "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", Beatrix Potter "Peter Rabbit", Roger Hargreaves "Mr Men", and others.





The problem I have is writing up the conclusion. I can't just leave it as it is because it would then just simply be artist research, but I have no idea how i would be able to round off this kind of contextual study. Does anybody have any clue as to how I can "tie up loose ends"? Thanks in advance :)|||It's the hardest part, of course! I wonder if you have also discussed how the stories are actually told? By which I mean the vocabulary, complexity of grammar etc? Does the same thing apply to the sophistication of the illustrations?





How long does your conclusion have to be? A whole paragraph or a long sentence? I would suggest that your conclusion should include a summing-up of the differences in the eras you have studied and the attitudes of adults towards children then, and the attitudes now.
