BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

Background: Ms. Flavia Bipkins, a wealthy Bay Area philanthropist and art collector, would like to donate a painting to Children’s Memorial Hospital in San Francisco. The painting would hang in the Family Lounge in the Surgical Center of the hospital. This is where families wait, sometimes for long periods, while a young family member undergoes surgery. As one might imagine, the wait is often stressful, while the family members worry about the successful outcome of the medical procedures.

PROBLEM:

Flavia Bipkins has an extensive art collection, which she treasures. She has narrowed down her choices for the donation to four paintings. She will give the hospital only one. Since she is a very caring human being, so she does not want her attachment with the paintings to influence her choice. She seeks your guidance in making the selection. Here is the question that she needs to answer: What is the most appropriate painting to adorn the Family Lounge at Children’s Memorial Hospital?
