Hi could you please explain why the first blank is C and Not B
We know MonaLisa painting is ancient and has historical significance. Unless the sentence conveys this meaning, you should not form this assumption.
Art critics evaluate and analyze certain features of an art. They look for the meaning, expression, critical and technical aspects in the art. Based on the information presented to us, technical fits the blank.
The other blank is easy as it should be along the lines of "decipher" or "decoding".
