series of paintings that tell a story

Well, a series of paintings that tell a story often has a consistent style. This helps the viewer to recognize that they belong together. Also, there is usually a central theme that ties all the paintings. Take 'A Rake's Progress' for instance. The central theme is the moral decline of the rake. The paintings use facial expressions, postures, and settings to convey different parts of the story. The colors might also change as the story progresses, for example, getting darker as the situation in the story gets worse.
