b. Florence promoted economic and social freedom.

While all the options have some truth to them, option b is the most accurate. Florence was a center of trade and wealth during the Renaissance, which allowed for a flourishing of the arts and provided artists with the economic means to pursue their work. This freedom, along with the city's rich cultural and intellectual environment, made it an ideal place for artistic expression.
