  2. 1- The estate is represented by the picture A is the First Estate, the Clergy. The estate represented in the picture B is the Second Estate, the Nobility.
    2- In picture A the duty of the Clergy was to pray for the spiritual salvation of the people and in picture B the duty of the Nobles was to defend the population.
    3- In picture A the priests and monks were well-dressed, normally they dressed habits and in picture B the nobles were well-dressed too, ladies with big dresses and barons with trousers and very coloreful shirts.
    4- The life depicted in the pictures is not hard, it's more like having fun and do wherever they want, excepting their obligations.

  3. Hello Montse, I'm Rosana. Here you are my answers to the questions:

    1) In picture "A" is representated the First Estate ( the Clergy)
    In picture "B" is representated the Second Estate (the Nobility)


    2) In picture "A" it is representated the clergy and their duty was to pray for the spiritual salvation of the people.
    In picture "B" it is representated the nobility and their duty was to defend the population.

    3) In both pictures they are well-dressed.
    In picture "A" the man is wearing a large and long red vestment and has a cappello romano.
    In picture "B" all women are wearing elegant dresses and most men are wearing dressy clothing, but some of them have funny clothes (I suppose they are a kind of clowns or, at least, they work for the entertainment of nobles).

    4) In my opinion, life depicted in the pictures isn't hard because in both of them people are wearing expensive clothes and in the second one they are in a room with lots of things that are typical of rich people of the time, such as very ornate walls, musical instruments, etc.

    2. Hi! I'm Inés:

      1- The estate is represented by the picture A is the ‘’First Estate’’, Clergy. The estate represented in the picture B is the’’ Second Estate’’, Nobility.
      2- In picture A their duty was to pray for the spiritual salvation of the people; in picture B the duty of the Nobles was to defend the population.
      3- In picture A they are well-dressed; in picture B the nobles were well-dressed too, the women are with big dresses and men are dress funny, they wear trousers and shirts.
      4- Life depicted in the pictures isn’t hard, because both pictures the people like very rich and powerful, and in picture B, I think they are doing everything they want, they're getting fun.
