When analyzing a piece of artwork, you can certainly do all of the following:

  1. Determine if the piece was successful - This involves a subjective evaluation of how well the artwork achieves its intended effect or communicates its message.

  2. Identify the message of the piece - Understanding the themes, emotions, or ideas the artist is trying to convey is a critical part of art analysis.

  3. List characteristics of the piece - This includes examining elements such as style, technique, color, form, and composition, which contribute to the overall impact of the artwork.

  4. State if the artwork fits the genre it is assigned - This involves analyzing how the piece aligns with the conventions and expectations of a specific genre, such as realism, impressionism, or abstract art.

Each of these aspects plays a role in a comprehensive analysis of artwork. The choice of which to emphasize can depend on the context of the analysis and the audience.

I would choose to identify the message of the piece. Understanding the message is central to interpreting an artwork's significance and impact, as it reveals the artist's intentions and the emotional or intellectual response it seeks to elicit from viewers.
