The correct answer is C. The above building was designed by Richard Boyle.

Richard Boyle, third Earl of Burlington and fourth Earl of Cork (April 25, 1694 - December 15, 1753), was an English architect born in Yorkshire, known as "The Apollo of the Arts". He was a great diffuser of Palladianism, converting this style in the dominant trend in English architecture of the time.

He designed homes and public buildings in England. His first project was his house in London, he also designed his country house in Chiswick (1725), which was the most representative construction of the predominance of Palladian architecture in England. He retired from public life in 1730, but continued to help other architects and the development of neoclassicism in painting and sculpture.
