Answer:

B. creating figures and settings with an increased naturalism

Explanation:

Duccio was a extraordinary painter born in Siena and Giotto was originally from Vicchio, both of them were born at the end of the 13th century. Both Duccio and Giotto belonged to the period that some historians refer to as the "Proto- Renaissance" period as far as art is concerned.
