Question

In the picture, the skeleton is wearing a religious hat. Which of the following statements best describes the meaning of this image?

a.The Church saves good Christians
b.The Church corruption may have caused the plague.
c. Death is natural part of life.
d.Death takes even the religiously devoted.

Answer 1

The correct answer is B.The Church corruption may have caused the plague.

Step-by-step explanation:

This image is a satire regarding the fact that the Church was not afraid to show off and take advantage of their privileged lifestyle. Above all, during the Plague, they thought they could "hide" and thus never be infected, while thousands of commoners died on the streets every day. But what this image wants to underline is the fact that, corruption always ends in death, and it will come for everyone, even the Church.
