An artist who explored Spanish cultural themes, Julio

This one was really tough and honestly, I am still doubtful about my answer.

Answer should be E

The main fight was between A, B, and E as C and D have some grammatical mistakes.

C) Here the modifier the art of whom is world renowned is away from the noun it modifies i.e.Julio Gonzalez

D) This is a sentence fragment. There is no conjunction between Phrase (An artist…..themes) and Main clause (Julio…....renowned)


Herein after we would look for the choice that has clear meaning.

The intended meaning should be Julio Gonzalez was world renowned and his art explored the Spanish cultural themes (He can explore the cultural themes through his art but he himself can not explore that)

Both A and B can be eliminated on the grounds on meaning issue. (IMO A also have a minor grammatical mistake)

A) Here the main clause is An artist was world renowned for his art. Julio Gonzalez describes the name of that artist so it should be separated from the rest of the sentence with comma. This choice would have been correct if it had the following structure. An artist who explored spanish cultural themes,Julio Gonzalez, was world renowned for his art.

B) Not in accordance with intended meaning. Spanish cultural themes were not the world renowned.

E) This choice IMO best represent the intended meaning
