Actually, the purpose of "The Lady of Shallot," a painting by Waterhouse, was to illustrate a/an C. Arthurian legend.
To arrive at this answer, you can start by examining the title of the painting, which mentions "The Lady of Shallot." "The Lady of Shallot" is a well-known character from Arthurian legend, a mythological narrative associated with the legendary King Arthur and his knights.
Further, you can examine the visual elements of the painting. If you look closely, you may notice elements that are commonly associated with Arthurian legends, such as the presence of knights, medieval attire, or symbols referencing the Arthurian world.
By understanding the historical and cultural context surrounding Waterhouse's work, you can conclude that the purpose of the painting was to depict a scene from the Arthurian legend, rather than a Roman myth (option D) or any of the other options you mentioned.
