please select the best answer from the choices provided

a
b

Explanation:

Pablo Picasso's The Blind Man's Meal uses a monochromatic color scheme, centered around brownish tones with variations of black, white, and value shifts of the core hue. Option B correctly defines monochromatic schemes as relying on one dominant color with shades, tints, and value variations. Other options are incorrect: A misdefines analogous schemes, C incorrectly labels the work as analogous, and D gives a wrong definition of monochromatic (that describes secondary colors).

Answer:

b. He used a monochromatic color scheme, which occurs when one color predominates,shades of black, tints of white, values of a hue.
