we need an option that shows why da Volterra's are essential for the painting!(A) The restorers believe that da Volterra stripped away all previous layers of paint before he painted his own additions to the Sistine Chapel.
If we removed da Volterra's addition that means that the painting will be missing pieces wherever his additions were made--this would absolutely destroy the painting!!
removing da Volterra's addition= blank spots on the painting=
Correct! (B) Because da Volterra used a type of pigment that is especially sensitive to light, the additions to the Sistine Chapel that ad Volterra painted have relatively muted colors.
Maybe Michelangelo's original work also consisted of colours that are light sensitive and to match up da Volterra used the same-- however doesnt prove why we cannot remove da Volterra's additions... we do not know whether removing light sensitive colours causes damage to the painting or not and if they do not then this option doesn't provide any evidence for the discrepancy!-
wrong!
(C) Da Volterra’s additions were painted in a style that was similar to the style used by Michelangelo.-
the other painters additions might have been painted in a style similar to that of Michelangelo-
this option is a 50/50 option-wrong!(D) Michelangelo is famous primarily for his sculptures and only secondarily for his paintings, whereas da Volterra is known exclusively for his paintings.
Even if Da Volterra is primarily known for his paintings the others (whose additions are removed) might also be primarily known for their paintings-- how does this prove that Da Volterra is different from the others?-- why only Da volterras additions stay and not the others?-
wrong!(E) Da Volterra’s work is considered by certain art historians to be just as valuable as the work of additions to Michelangelo’s work.- if we are removing the others and others=Da Volterra then Da Volterra is nothing special.---
further increases the gap in the discrepancy! _________________
