Explanation:

Analyze the visual details in the painting

The painting depicts Act 1, Scene 1 of The Tragedy of King Lear (specifically, Cordelia's Farewell). In the painting, we can observe the physical presence of Lear's dog (a hound standing near the center-right) and the visual representation of the characters' reactions to Cordelia's departure.

Compare painting details with the provided text excerpt

The text excerpt summarizes the plot of Act 1, Scene 1, mentioning Lear's plan to divide his kingdom, the declarations of love by Goneril and Regan, Cordelia's refusal to flatter him, Lear's anger, and the presence of France, Burgundy, Gloucester, and Kent.

1. Lear's dog is clearly visible in the painting but is not mentioned anywhere in the text excerpt.
2. The visual representation of the characters' reactions to Cordelia's departure (such as their physical postures, gestures, and facial expressions) is present in the painting but is not described in the text summary.

• First blank: "Lear's dog" (which is present in the painting but not in the text).
