The correct answer is A. The artist portrays Pandora as she looks upon the jar with absolute focus. We can see the ocean in the background, but she is oblivious to it. All she can see is the jar, and we feel the gut-wrenching curiosity that torments her. In the painting she does not open the jar, but from her face we can tell that she probably will.
