<u>Explanation:</u>
The Haymarket Affair (otherwise called the Haymarket Massacre, Haymarket Riot, or Haymarket Square Riot) was the fallout of a bombing that occurred at a work exhibition on May 4, 1886, at Haymarket Square in Chicago.
The rally started on 4th May and Albert Parsons, August Spies, and Samuel Fielden addressed the crowd who gathered for a peaceful negotiation of the worker's rights estimated from 600 to 3,000 in a open wagon near square on Des Plaines Street.
After the rally started, police arrived in group at around 10.30 pm and ordered the crowd rallying to disperse. Home-made bomb filled with dynamite was thrown in the path of the police coming towards them. At once after the bombing, gunshots were exchanged.
Arrest and conviction:
- 8 agitators were accused of plotting and doing the shelling (despite the fact that proof against them was powerless)
- 4 were hung, 1 self-murdered in jail, 3 were detained until John Peter Altgeld drove their sentences in 1893
Baroque artwork was lavish, dramatic, and awe inspiring. The goal of the movement for the Catholic Church was to create a sense of awe and teaching of the Catholic faith. At the time, Protestantism had taken foot and in order to demonstrate the power and glory of the Catholic Church, the papacy used baroque artwork to teach the stories of the bible and even demonstrate the tortures of hell. Many Europeans were unable to read and despite the bible beginning to be translated and more available, Catholics believed the word of God came from the Church. Therefore, the imagery helped to explain the stories of the faith without followers needing the ability to read.
