<span>The correct answer is A. teach the Bible on an
emotional level to lower-class people.
Baroque artwork was dramatic and the goal of the movement for the Catholic
Church was to create a sense of awe while teaching the Catholic faith. At the
time, Protestantism had spread 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 people couldn’t read
and despite the bible began to be translated and became 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. </span>
