Which of the following is NOT necessarily among the attributes needed for a painter to succeed:
Explanation:
From the fifth paragraph, “for a painting to succeed, it is essential that the painter and his public agree about what is significant” (option 1 can be eliminated). The subject may have a personal meaning for the painter or individual spectator, but there must also be a possibility of their agreement on its general meaning (option 2 can be eliminated). In paragraph 5, the author also gives an example of renaissance art and that it is appreciated because of its historic significance. That eliminates option 4. Option 3 alone is not enough to make a painting succeed. Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
