Pre-raphaelite paintings were often based on a. literature. b. scenes from everyday life. c. scenes of royal and aristocratic life. d. religious stories.

I believe the correct answer is B. scene from everyday life.

The Pre-Raphaelite movement opposed the British Royal Academy, which championed a narrow range of idealized or moral subjects and conventional definitions of beauty drawn from Renaissance and ancient classical art. The artists of this movement were inspired by the centuries preceding the Italian High Renaissance and they depicted nature and the human body realistically. Some of the examples of this movement are: “The Lady of Shalott” by John William Waterhouse and “Ophelia” by John Everett Millais.
