Oil painting did to appearance what capital did to social____________. It reduced everything to the __________of objects. Everything became __________because everything became a commodity. All reality was mechanically__________ by its materiality

Solution

Option B is the correct answer because it accurately fills the blanks with terms that align with the context and convey the intended meaning. The sentence draws a parallel between the impact of oil painting on appearance and the impact of capital on social relations.The term "relations" aptly describes the complexity of social connections, while "exchangeability" aligns with the idea that both oil painting and capital reduce diverse elements to a commercial, commodified form. "Measured" effectively concludes the sentence, emphasizing the mechanistic quantification of reality based on its material aspects. This option provides a coherent and contextually fitting completion.
