To better define the shape of the objects in an artwork like the "Tsuba with Two Figures with a Chinese Lion-Dog" by Okamoto Naoshige, the most emphasized element would likely be d. the negative space around the object. Negative space plays a crucial role in defining and enhancing the form and shape of the main subjects, creating contrast and allowing for better visual clarity of the objects themselves.
