I believe that (A) allowed for function, historical significance, and aesthetics to all be important.
Function: The statues also function as the pillars of the building to hold the building up
Historical significance: The statues look to me to be carved with the impression of a certain ruler, and have historical significance of what the ruler have done carved on the bottom part of his 'clothing'.
Aesthetics: As this is a masterpiece, and uses art to express the history, Aesthetics is also used.
hope this helps
I believe that character is Korben Dallas.
The viola is a string instrument that is bowed or played with varying techniques. It is slightly larger than a violin and has a lower and deeper sound. Since the 18th century, it has been the middle or alto voice of the violin family, between the violin and the cello. While the viola da gamba ( can be called a viol/gamba )is any one of a family of bowed, fretted and stringed instruments with hollow wooden bodies and pegboxes where the tension on the strings can be increased or decreased to adjust the pitch of each of the strings. Basically no, but they really do look similar to a violin.
Gouache is a type of watercolor in which white pigment is added, creating a duller effect and a tinted feel with a smooth finish. The paint usually comes in tubes, with which the artist must add the vehicle (water).
