Cosimo de' Medici, a great patron of the arts, sponsoring two of Donatello's most famous works, statues of David and Judith, while supporting Brunelleschi to complete the dome of the cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, which is known to be "Duomo.“
the sentence lacks a main verb for the subject Cosimo de' Medici.
the ing form phrases are giving more information about the the subject. The main verb can be added by converting the subject and the phrase following to a clause :
Cosimo de' Medici was a great patron of the arts
the remaining modifiers could stand as is or in some form which is parallel as in option B
Elimination:
C- meaning change in two places 1. sponsored first so that he could support second 2. in the second part, he supported when it was completed
D No main verb
E verb-ed modifier will be better to touch the noun it modifies

There is no verb in this sentence. sponsoring is a verbing modifier and not a verb. known to be is used incorrectly. It should have been "known as".

This looks correct. sponsoring and supporting are two verbing modifiers in parallel modifying the clause "Cosimo de' Medici was a great patron of the arts". "known as" is correctly used. Correct

"so that" unnecessarily and illogically brings a cause and effect situation here. The original sentence doesn't specify any cause and effect situation. that introduces a restrictive clause and therefore comma is wrong before that.

sponsoring is not a verb. "he" brings another subject in a sentence without any proper conjunction. known by is wrong idiomatically.

Sentence implies that sponsoing and supporting should have been verbing modifier suggesting how Medici was a great patron of arts. Here, this sentence is trying to make three actions parallel to each other and even the parallelism is faulty. "was a patron.., sponsored, and he supported" are not parallel.
