B)Even art is affected by the ravages of time. In the passage, the author speaks about how the brain of the artists can produce these glorious pieces which cause intense emotion from the heart. Yet no matter how grand the art is, time will still negatively impact the pieces. The author goes on to illustrate that everything is affected by time, including our sun which will not always shine so magnificently in the sky.
