2. How were medieval art and religion related?

In the Medival times, the church had authority over knowledge and art. They were the ones who mostly funded the artists and who took most care of the art. Therefore, most of the medieval art we have today describes religious themes and ideas and is saved in the churches.

Explanation:

In the Medival times, knowledge and art were closely connected to the church. Usually, the church was very wealthy and politically influential at the time and held a kind of monopoly over the knowledge. They were mostly the ones who funded art, so there was rather a lot of religious art during that time. While there were artists who created secular art, not related to religion, they were less likely to have fundings and their work was not as carefully kept and preserved. They also frequently made copies of scripts and religious writings, so a lot of insular art with Biblical themes is saved.

Most of the art surviving today from Midival times is kept at churches, presented there, or shows the religious teachings and scenes from the Bible. Around Europe, there are preserved churches, mosaics, frescoes, altars, and jewelry that were influenced by the Christian ideas and teachings, and likely funded by their money. This is true of Catholic art, as well as of Byzantine – in regions of both Christan teaching, the church had the most authority and religious art was the most prized one.
