Answer to Question 1

C
Monotypes are singular prints that cannot be precisely duplicated.

Answer to Question 2

The artist, Master of the Osservanza, used tempera paint as his medium, illustrating episodes from the life of Saint Anthony. Tempera was a popular medium in the early Renaissance, and the artist built up the forms of his work slowly, through layers of precise brushwork, resulting in a charming vision of what the artist perceived a desert must look like.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
