Answer:

B - Caravaggio created dramatic compositions that focus on realism.

Step-by-step explanation:

Caravaggio's paintings were famous for its realistic approach. He observed human being with an astonishing sense of accuracy, and tried to emulate every part of it, not only in proportion but combining with a dramatic use of lighting which created a canvas that was beautiful and scary to see, at the same time.
