Reading the passage
Go back to the opening test: was the work “intended to deceive”? Resembling another artwork isn't enough. We need something about the maker's purpose that settles the question of deceptive intent.
Working the answers
- A
A follower can openly work in a mentor's style without trying to fool anyone.
- B
Copying as a learning exercise supplies a different purpose. Resemblance alone doesn't establish deception.
- CCorrect
Wanting people to be fooled by the appearance is the intent to deceive. It directly meets the opening definition; as the next sentence explains, the maker’s intentions determine the classification (paragraph 1).
- D
Commercial copies can be sold openly as reproductions. Making several identical objects doesn't establish an intent to pass them off as something else.
- E
An earlier style could be imitated honestly or deceptively. Unlike C, this tells us about the appearance without settling the intention behind it.
