A Bit of Culture

In this Spanish Medium Review picture quiz you will be experiencing a bit of culture by looking at some of the arts. Culture is what defines a people, even a nation. That same culture can have tremendous impact on the emotions, beliefs and behaviors of people around the world, not only in the present time, but throughout history, both past and present. In short – culture is timeless. That is especially true with the culture of fine arts. In appreciation for culture, this quick picture quiz is going to introduce you to a little bit of culture that has helped to shape all of us.

Some cultural arts will bring back memories while others can take part in shaping our future. Whether it was past or present - each has helped to change us for the better, either directly or indirectly.

This patio is decorated in a ____ style.
Renacimiento

comedia
moderno
The first answer means Renaissance. The second answer means contemporary. The third answer means comedy and the last answer means modern. You can now quickly eliminate the third answer.
