Correct answer choice is:

A. Sfumato.

Explanation:

In painting, the word "sfumato" relates to the method of oil sketching which colors or hues are mixed in such a detailed way that they fuse into one another without discernible changes, lines or borders. Leonardo da Vinci himself explained sfumato as a blending of shades "without edges or margins, in the way of smoke." It is as if a cloud of smoke has been disposed between the landscape and the observer, toning down the bright regions and easing the dark ones, so as to compose a soft, undetectable development within the differing trends.
