The correct answer is C.) Human mortality is inevitable, and it is important to live an authentic life.

Indeed, Ivan thinks he has lived a rightful life, a life where he has behaved honorably and has risen in society to a position of some wealth and influence. However, his wife does not love him and is completely self-centered. His daughter shows the exact same attitude and only his son does show some compassion.

The only person he feels some kind of warmth from is, Gerasim, his peasant servant boy who keeps him company as he is lying on his deathbed. Gerasim also does not share his fear of death due to his Christian faith and his detachment from the materialism of life since he is quite destitute and death would be a liberation.

Ivan discovers through Gerasim’s example that he has lived a materialistic shallow life; a life of conformity to societal norms. He realizes that the only way a life can be authentic is to show compassion and sympathy for other human beings.

2. To better capture the personality of the individual, the artist chose to
serious [3.7K]

In my opinion correct answer is nbr. 1 "pets and items..."  The artist can easily interpret several aspects of the individual's personality by observing these items that transmit likes and costumes, personal interests and pets that can speak, sometimes "loudly" about the personality of someone. Especially the way a person interacts with pets is one of the most valuable keys to reach the bottom of the soul that in some cases a person tries to hide.
