Amid the expression of religious creed and artistic manifestation of ecclesiastical thesis, were wound the cluster of Byzantine classical arts, spread far and wide from Egypt and Arabia to the Russian mainland
(A were wound the cluster of Byzantine classical arts, spread - Singular verb WAS need to be used for singular noun CLUSTER.
B) were wound the cluster of Byzantine classical arts, spreading - Singular verb WAS need to be used for singular noun CLUSTER.
(C) was wound the cluster of Byzantine classical arts, which was spreading - Art was not spreading. ACTION already happened sometime in past, So it is correct to use SIMPLE PAST
(D) was wound the cluster of Byzantine classical arts, spread - Correct
(E)was wound the cluster of Byzantine classical arts, that had spread -- Which action happened after Art spread??? Author is talking only about one single ACTION, So it is correct to use SIMPLE PAST
