Option D i.e Corinthian is the correct answer.

The three main periods of Greek sculpture are :

1. The Archaic Period (c.650-500 BCE) : In this period monumental marble sculpture was developed.

2. The Classical Period (c.500-323 BCE) : During this period, the Greek sculpture was at its peak.

3. The Hellenistic Period (c.323-27 BCE) : The "Greek" style of 3-D art was practiced.

I believe the correct answer is option D. Corinthian is not one of the three main periods of Greek sculpture. Instead, it is Archaic, Classical and Hellenistic that are the main periods. Corinthian is the  last developed of the three principal classical orders of ancient Greek and Roman architecture.
