Answer:

answer in social, economic, and political

Explanation:

Social: During the early 1800s, the idea of equality became more prominent and social conditions for women began to change, which led to the birth of the Women's Suffrage Movement. Although women were still considered weaker than men, they started to receive more educational opportunities. For instance, by the end of the 19th century the number of women students increased to more than one third than before. Also, the foundation of colleges for women as well as events at women’s rights conventions challenged society’s views on women’s traditional roles. Higher education was broadened by the rise of women's colleges and the admission of women to regular colleges and universities. In the 1800s women were stuck in the Cult of Domesticity.

Economic: As for work, women were discriminated against. Many people believed that a women's place was in the home and that cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the family was their job. In the early 19th century, the jobs most readily available to women were domestic and factory work. For an example, during the first half of the nineteenth century teaching became a respectable job for middle-class women. Also, women started working in factories as seamstresses in places like the Lowell Mills.

Political: Women began to start taking part in reform movements in the 1800's, which gave them little involvement in politics. As a result, women began to wonder why they were not also allowed to vote. The first major public appeal for women's suffrage came in 1848 when Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton called for a women's rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York. At the convention they created the Declaration of Sentiments. The Declaration of Sentiments demanded for women to have equal rights to men in education, property, voting, and other issues.

Charra [1.4K]
Assuming you have to write an essay about this....

If the paintings are found in temples then maybe those paintings were used in the temple or even painted there.
 the point is there is no wrong answer for this question basically all you do is write your thoughts and if you need more words just expand on why you think this or that.
