Answer:

4. Identification, description, and the interpretation of the content of images.

Explanation:

Iconography is literally translated to “image writing”, and as such, it studies interpretation of the content that is presented on the image or painting. It can describe what is on the image – the number of figures and items, placing, description, gestures – but it also classifies the elements and symbols that show up. It also explains various symbols and decodes them, and is, therefore, an important part of the semiotics.

Over the course of art history, part of iconography started focusing more on Christian art, its symbolism, and artistic expressions.

Answer:

Hi! I believe the answer is a collage.

Explanation: Collage (/kəˈlɑːʒ/, from the French: coller, "to glue" or "to stick together";) is a technique of art creation, primarily used in the visual arts, but in music too, by which art results from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole. (Compare with pastiche, which is a "pasting" together.)
