What is the main material in terracotta art?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Baked clay

Terracotta literally refers to baked or fired earth, so its principal material is clay that has been shaped and then hardened by heating in a kiln or other controlled fire. Before firing, the clay can be moulded, carved, or decorated; firing removes moisture and makes the object firm and durable. Thus option B, baked clay, is correct. Glass, paper, and sound may be important in other artistic or craft practices, but they are not the defining material of terracotta. The word itself provides a useful clue: terra means earth or land, and cotta refers to cooking or baking. Terracotta objects may include additional colour or decoration, but their basic body is fired clay.
