To determine which principle of design is NOT represented in the work of art, we will analyze the image provided. However, as an AI text-based bot, I am unable to directly view or access images. Therefore, I cannot provide a specific answer based on the image itself. However, I can still provide some guidance to help you reach a decision.

Based on the given options, we can evaluate each principle and speculate which one is unlikely to be represented in the artwork:

1. Variety: This principle refers to the use of different elements, such as colors, shapes, and sizes, to create visual interest. Since the artwork includes strawberries and a white flower, it is reasonable to assume that there would be some variety in colors and shapes.

2. Pattern: This principle involves the repetition of elements to create a sense of organization and order. Without being able to directly view the artwork, it is difficult to determine if there is a discernible pattern present. However, the nature of the subject matter (strawberries and a flower) suggests that pattern may be involved (e.g., the repeating pattern of strawberries or petals).

3. Emphasis: This principle involves creating a focal point or center of attention within the artwork. As the question describes a bowl of strawberries with a white flower in the center, it is likely that the white flower serves as the focal point or emphasis in the composition.

4. Radial Balance: This principle refers to a type of balance where elements radiate from a central point. Based on the description, it is possible that the white flower in the center of the strawberries creates a radial balance, as the petals may radiate outward.

In conclusion, without having access to the specific image, it is challenging to determine which principle is NOT represented. However, based on the context provided, it is most plausible to assume that the principle of pattern may be less likely to be represented as compared to the others.

To answer this question, we need to analyze the image and understand the principles of design. The image is not provided, but we can draw upon our knowledge of art principles to determine the answer.

The first principle mentioned is "variety." Variety refers to the use of different visual elements in a composition. For example, if the strawberries in the bowl were of different sizes, colors, or shapes, it would demonstrate variety. However, without seeing the image, we cannot determine if variety is present or absent.

The second principle mentioned is "pattern." Pattern refers to a repeated design or motif. If there is a repeated pattern in the artwork, it would represent this principle. Without seeing the image, we cannot determine if there is a pattern or not.

The third principle mentioned is "emphasis." Emphasis involves making certain elements stand out or be more noticeable than others. For example, if the white flower in the middle of the strawberries is highlighted or emphasized, it would represent this principle. Without seeing the image, we cannot determine if there is emphasis or not.

The last principle mentioned is "radial balance." Radial balance refers to a composition that is balanced around a central point. If the strawberries and the flower are arranged in a radial pattern, it would represent this principle. Without seeing the image, we cannot determine if there is radial balance or not.

In conclusion, without access to the image, we cannot definitively determine which principle is not represented in the artwork. It is essential to review the image to make an accurate judgment.
