Which option gives the narrowest meaning of art?

Correct answer: Art is only a thing for wall decoration

A narrow definition selects only one limited function and excludes the wider purposes of art. Option C is correct because it reduces art to wall decoration, although art can also express feelings and ideas, record experience, communicate values, question society, preserve culture, and provide aesthetic or reflective experiences. Option A gives a broad human-centred meaning, option B recognises art’s social and cultural connections, and option D identifies its expressive role. None of these three confines art to a single decorative use. The word “only” in option C signals an unjustified restriction of meaning.
