What is the meaning of the foreign expression in bold? The Army Art Program began during World War I as a way to record history

Answer and Explanation:

Since this question has no options, I will offer a general explanation of the foreign expression.

<u>The sentence we are analyzing here presents the French expression "carte blanche". Giving someone carte blanche means giving them total freedom to do something. For example: Mr. Johnson gave us carte blanche to choose the theme for our final paper.</u>

<u>In the passage, we are told "eight soldier-artists were given carte blanche". That means they were free to do whatever they chose to; they were free to use "any style or medium" they wanted.</u>
