Hi,

I cannot seem to infer from the passage what is stated in answerchoice C.

Many thanks.

The support is from lines 13-17.

"Lacquer fit well with Gray's artistic sensibilities ...
Gray eschewed (avoided/rejected) the flowing, leafy lines of Art Nouvaeu ... preferring instead the austere beauty of straight lines and simple forms."

So the question in (C) would be answered "No, they were different. Flowery vs. simple. Elaborate vs. austere."
