Answer:

Monumental architecture is built to serve an intrinsic artistic purpoose, and an extrinsic purpose in terms of religious and political power.

Explanation:

The intrinsic purpose is simply to create something that applies the most important or favored artistic techniques of the time. And the extrinsic purpose is to demonstrate the power and wealth that is held.

For example, the Roman Emperor Neron wanted to build a large palace called the Domos Aurea. He wanted the palace to be built under the best Roman architects of the time, and also wanted it to serve as a place of worship, for himself. He wanted to wield both political and religious power, as a sort of semi-devine figure, through the completion of the palace.
