问题 In the past century Irish painting has changes from a British—influenced lyrical tradition to an art that evokes the ruggedness(朴实)and roots of an Irish Celtic past．At the turn of the twentieth century Irish painters，including notables Walter Frederick Osborne and Sir William Orpen，looked elsewhere for influence Osborne’s exposure to‘plain air’painting deeply impacted his stylistic development；and Orpen allied himself with a group of English artists，while at the same time partici pated in the French avant-garde experiment，both as painter and teacher．
    However，nationalist energies were beginning to coalesce(接合)，reviving interest in Irish culture-including Irish visual arts．Beatrice Elvery’s(1907)，a landmark achievement，merged the devotional simplicity of fifteenth—century Italian painting with the iconography(图像学)of Ireland’s Celtic past，linking the history of Irish Catholicism with the still—nascent(初生的)Irish republic And，although also captivated by the French plain air school，Sir John Lavery invoked the mythology of his native land for a 1928 commission to paint the central figure for the bank note of the new Irish Free State Lavery chose as this figure，with her arnl on a Celtic harp(竖琴)，the national symbol of independent Ireland   In Irish painting from about 1910，memories of Edwardian romanticism coexisted with a new sense of realism，exemplified by the paintings of Paul Henry and Se Keating，a student of Orpen’s．Realism also crept into the work of Edwardians Lavery and Orpen，both of whom made paintings depicting World War I，Lavery with a distanced Victorian nobility，Orpen closer to the front，revealing
a more sinister and realistic vision．Meanwhile，counterpoint(对照)to the Edwardians and realists came JackbYeats，whose travels throughout the rugged and more authentically Irish West led him  to depict subjects ranging from street scenes in Dublin to boxing matches and funerals．Fusing close observations of Irish life and icons with an Irish identity in a new way，Yeats changed the face of I fish painting and became the most important Irish artist of his century．
The most likely topic of the paragraph followed is_______________．
选项 A、The Role of Celtic Mythology in Irish Painting
B、Who Deserves Credit for the Pre—eminence of Yeats among Irish Painters?
C、Realism vs Romanticism：Ireland’s Struggle for National Identity
D、Irish Paintings：Reflections of an Emerging Independent State
答案D
解析 文章后面两段提到由于爱尔兰独立，爱尔兰画家所作画的重点也逐渐转移到爱尔兰的独立上，所以在下一段很有可能探讨爱尔兰绘画对爱尔兰独立的反映。
