Answer 1

The qualities the artist is communicating about the religious leader through his position and gestures, particularly with the upraised arm and the stance above a crowd, are most likely **power and distinction**. The raised arm suggests authority and a call to attention, while the elevated position above the admirers indicates a prominent status.
