Is the answer B?

A

B
C

yes by the look of it. My grandparents had the picture so that's how i know;)

Are you guessing cause I saw you answer my brother Beau?

I don't know why it put Beau as the person writing.lol

I know why.

Even if you and Beau are twins, you should use the same name when you're asking and responding to the same questions.

Interchanging names is confusing to you as well as to us.

yes i am sure.

It CANNOT BE A since the ballerinas pink dresses don't blend in with the green (anybody can day that)
Green and Pink ARE NOT cool colors
And it definetly does not use analogous colors in the picture-_-

In your first question i am not 100% sure, sorry:( But i strongly believe that you are correct. 98% sure.

Yes, the answer is B. The artist, Edgar Degas, used color contrast to create emphasis in the image "Dancers Backstage".

To arrive at this answer, one can analyze the artwork and observe the use of color. By using color contrast, Degas draws attention to the main ballerina, making her the focal point of the composition. This is achieved by placing the vibrant and warm-toned ballerina in contrast to the softer, cooler tones in the rest of the image.

To better understand the use of color in art, one can look at various elements such as hue, value, and saturation. In this case, Degas strategically selected colors that would contrast and stand out against each other, thereby drawing the viewer's attention to the main subject.
