b. Its wealth and individualism promoted artistic growth.
Florence's prosperous merchant and banking class (like the Medici), patronage of artists, and humanist culture encouraged innovation in art, architecture, and learning — sparking the Renaissance. Option a is incorrect (pigments came from various places, not uniquely Florence) and option c is wrong (the Reformation began later and was centered in northern Europe, not Florence).
