Answer 2

In the funeral of St. Bonaventure, the artist used the principle of contrast to create emphasis and focal point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Artists look to create effects of contrast by positioning elements next to one another that are very different, for example areas of different value, color, or size.

In The Funeral of St. Bonaventure , a painting by Spanish artist Francisco de Zurbarán (1598–1664), now in the Louvre Museum, most of the lightest values are reserved for the clothing adorning the dead body of St. Bonaventure.

Around the body of St. Bonaventure are figures including James I of Aragon and Pope Gregory X, shown in conversation.
