The scenario that best describes the ethical use of someone else’s original work is:

A student presents a series of paintings in the public domain for an art history project, crediting each painter.

This scenario is ethical because the paintings are in the public domain, meaning they are free to use without permission, and the student is also giving credit to the original painters. This aligns with ethical practices in academia and respect for original creators' work.
