Answer

Brief Explanations:

The cuirass (breast - plate) on the Augustus of Primaporta symbolizes military power, ability to negotiate, and divine favor as it is a military garment. Tellus with babies represents fertility and abundance as Tellus is a goddess associated with the earth and fertility. The outstretched hand can be linked to oratorial ability and Etruscan precedent as it is a gesture often used in oration. Cupid and Dolphin symbolize divine descent and naval victory as Cupid is associated with Venus (Augustus' divine ancestor) and the dolphin is a naval symbol. The contrapposto pose represents classical idealization and heroism of Greek athlete as it is a classical Greek sculptural pose. For the Henry Moore sculpture, the large cavity in the center of Reclining Figure (1951) represents a wound according to common interpretations of Moore's work which often has organic - like forms that can be seen as representing natural or human - like imperfections.
