Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. 1884
Juan Luna painted the Spoliarium for the Ayuntamiento of Manila, starting in 1883. By May 1884 he sent the large canvas to Madrid for the annual Exposición Nacional de Bellas Artes, where it won a gold medal. The earlier years 1854 and 1869 come before Luna's own student days in Madrid, which started in 1875.
