Question

For hours at a time Raphael would stand quietly beside the old man as he worked, noting each detail of the potter’s skill, and storing up in his little head the things he learned there.
Which sentence from Raphael expresses a SIMILAR idea?

Group of answer choices

“In those years he was extremely active, preparing monumental frescoes for the papal chambers.”

“Whether Raphael entered the workshop of Perugino at that time or, as seems more likely, many years later when he was already an acknowledged artist, he quickly mastered Perugino’s delicate, ornamental style.”

“Raphael remained in Rome for the last 12 years of his life.”

“Late in 1504, Raphael moved to Florence, drawn there by accounts of Leonardo’s work there.”

Answer 1

“Whether Raphael entered the workshop of Perugino at that time or, as seems more likely, many years later when he was already an acknowledged artist, he quickly mastered Perugino’s delicate, ornamental style.”

Reason: both sentences describe Raphael learning from a master—observing and absorbing details of the master's technique until he mastered the style.
