One of the world's most celebrated paintings, The Man with the Golden Helmet, long attributed to Rembrandt, is not a Rembrandt after all. So say several art experts, who base their conclusion on an analysis of stylistic features, especially details both of shading and of brushwork. In order to ascertain who really painted the well-known masterpiece, the experts have begun a series of sophisticated new tests, including one that involves the activation of neutrons. These tests yield patterns for any painter that are as distinctive as a good set of fingerprints.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the conclusion of the art experts depends?
(A) The Man with the Golden Helmet was riot painted during Rembrandt's lifetime.
(B) If even The Man with the Golden Helmet is of questionable attribution, then any supposedly authentic Rembrandt has now become suspect.
(C) The painting known as The Man with the Golden Helmet is a copy of a Rembrandt original.
(D) The original ascription of The Man with the Golden Helmet to Rembrandt was a deliberate fraud.
(E) There are significant consistencies among authentic Rembrandts in certain matters of style.

This question asks us to find the assumption behind the conclusion of the art experts. So the conclusion we have to ponder on here is the first sentence: One of the world's most celebrated paintings, The Man with the Golden Helmet, long attributed to Rembrandt, is not a Rembrandt after all
We can see that the author's conclusion is not present in this passage. The only premise here for the experts' conclusion as given is So say several art experts, who base their conclusion on an analysis of stylistic features, especially details both of shading and of brushwork. The passage cannot be called an argument as such but it contains an argument by the art experts.
