what does this image share with the image in source 8.2: representing the
declaration?
they both showcase the declaration of the rights of man and citizen
they both depict figures of african descent being freed
they both depict the aristocracy as demons
they both use the allegorical figures of fame and france

Explanation:

1. The engraving's title "All Mortals Are Equal, It Is Not Birth But Virtue That Makes the Difference" (1793) aligns with the ideals of equality tied to advocating for the rights of marginalized groups like free Blacks and mulattoes in the revolutionary era. The other options are inconsistent: the date/attribution details are not supported as the key inference, and it does not reflect opposition to the Revolution.
2. The 1793 engraving centers on equality, a core principle of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen. Source 8.2, focused on representing the Declaration, shares this focus on the document's ideals. The other options are incorrect: the 1793 image does not show freeing of an African-descent figure, does not depict aristocracy as demons, and does not use the specific allegorical figures of Fame and France.

Answer:

1. It was created by a supporter of rights for free blacks and mulattoes.
2. They both showcase the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen
