Answer:

b) To prove that artists are not historians

Explanation:

Geoffrey Ashe most likely made the reference in the depiction of biblical scenes because he wanted to prove that artists are not historians.

He made the observation that when you see a painting of an angel appearing to Mary, a window at the back looks like a French chateau which could not have existed in Nazareth.

A chateau is a manor house or where a Lord resides and because a window resembles a chateau in a painting that is supposed to depict the biblical Nazareth, it is likely that the artist that made the painting is a poor student of history.

Geoffrey is of the opinion that artists are not historians (or good students of history) because of the blatant error of putting a French chateau in a painting of Nazareth.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The phrase that makes this thesis statement wordy is: electronic mail.

Explanation:

Wordiness refers to making something longer than it should be, that is, using too many words to express something. In the case of the thesis statement we are analyzing here, all words seem to be necessary with the exception of the final phrase. As we know, "electronic mail" is no longer an expression in use. It's been decades since it has been replaced by the shorter version "email", "e" standing for "electronic". Not only does using "electronic mail" make the sentence wordy, it also makes it sound old-fashioned.
