← HistoryWhich aesthetic consequence decreased the longevity of Byzanatine mosaics?
A)Chromatic aberration reduced detail perception
B)Tesserae density increased structural stress
C)Grout refraction yielded uneven surfaces
D)Specular reflection demanded softer mortar✓
💡 Explanation
Specular reflection needs specific mortar softness for even light play but introduces weaknesses. This weakens the mounting because softer mortar degrades faster, therefore reflecting less light evenly, rather than alternatives influencing aesthetics to cause damage.
