Baroque art is characterized by dynamic compositions that often create a sense of movement and emotional intensity. Therefore, the best answer from your options is:
a. The figures seem to move diagonally, expand upward, or overlap their frame.
This reflects the typical Baroque emphasis on dramatic gestures, diagonal lines, and a sense of depth and three-dimensional space, which contrasts with the more stable and balanced compositions found in earlier periods like the Renaissance or the more restrained styles of later periods such as Neoclassicism.
