21. It is very difficult to prove today that a painting done two or three hundred years ago, especially one without a signature or with a questionably authentic signature, is indubitably the work of this or that particular artist. This fact gives the traditional attribution of a disputed painting special weight, since that attribution carries the presumption of historical continuity. Consequently, an art historian arguing for a deattribution will generally convince other art historians only if he or she can persuasively argue for a specific reattribution.


Which one of the following, if true, most strongly supports the position that the traditional attribution of a disputed painting should not have special weight?


(A) Art dealers have always been led by economic self-interest to attribute any unsigned paintings of merit to recognized masters rather than to obscure artists.


(B) When a painting is originally created, there are invariably at least some eyewitnesses who see the artist ac work, and thus questions of correct attribution cannot arise at that time.


(C) There are not always clearly discernible differences between the occasional interior work produced by a master and the very best work produced by a lesser talent.


(D) Attribution can shape perception inasmuch as certain features that would count as marks of greatness in a master's work would be counted as signs or inferior artistry if a work were attributed to a minor artist.


(E) Even though some masters had specialists assist them with certain detail work, such as depicting lace, the resulting works are properly attributed to the masters alone.


绿色的部分是什么意思?

"这种事实给予用传统方式去归属有争议的绘画特别的分量,因为这种归属是基于历史延续的假设. 因此对于削弱传统归属方式,一个艺术史学家通常很难说服同行除非他能提出一种特殊的重新归属方式."



答案A "艺术品商人经常在受到利益的驱使下去归属"  提出了对于传统归属方式的质疑,

I select C as the key. According to my judgment, C casts doubt on the belief of "historical continuity" - the presumption on which the weight of the traditional attribution depends.
