The Lady of Shalott is symbolic of an artist such as a poet because she also needs isolation so she can create. Plus, she has this idea that what she does stands at a superior level: it is magical, beyond ordinary. We can see it in the following line, which is the correct answer:

"She is forced into isolation from the real world by devotion to her craft."
