Bending the rules of Renaissance art.
I believe that this was China.
Stupas originated in India around 4th century BCE and later the idea spread around Asia . In China it was then combined with the Chinese Watchtowers, and then as such it spread (under the name Pagoda) to other countries, such as Japan.
The Renaissance was a time of learning and art after the "Dark Ages" in Europe. The main characteristics of the Renaissance are:
• The Commercial Revolution began, it's when different European countries developed urban commercial centers; it also began when Feudalism passed.
• The revival of Greek and Roman Art.
• The mastery of making illusion techniques on canvas (art).
• The change from Age to Faith to the Age of Reason.
• The embracing of humans (Humanism).
The answer is A. The painting is “The Night Watch”, I suppose. It is because of the lighting that the painting is more dramatic, since it highlights people and creates suspense.
