Answer:
The correct answer is D. Mannerism emerged in the courts of Rome in the 1520s and defied the perfection of the High Renaissance.
Explanation:
Mannerism was a period in the history of art and music that went from about 1520 to the beginning of the 17th century. The very name Mannerism originates from the Italian word maniera, which really means "stylish behavior" with emphasis on simple elegance, balance and harmony. In the context of art (including music) and artists (including composers and musicians), the word "mannerism" is most commonly used in the context of open light and often excessive bravery, virtuosity and whimsical behavior. Mannerism is the transitional period between the High Renaissance and the Baroque. Examples of well-known mannerists are Pontormo, Parmigianino and El Greco.
