Your question is posted on the first question connected to this passage, so I am assuming that you are asking about question 11: "As it is described in the passage, Brown's explanation of the use of the eyewitness style in Venetian narrative painting suggests that..." If this is incorrect, let me know and I'd be happy to help with the question!
As for question 11, D is incorrect because it states that the detail in the narrative paintings can be traced primarily to the influence of the paintings in the Venetian magistrate's palace. The passage states that the paintings in the magistrate's palace were the counterpart of the written history and that the written history also influenced the eyewitness style in Venetian narrative painting. As both the historical writing and the magistrate's paintings influenced the Venetian eyewitness style, we cannot claim that the historical detail can be traced primarily to the influence of the magistrate's paintings as the passage tells use that the detail can be traced to some combination of the two.
Hope this is helpful! Please let us know if you have any further questions.

in response to this question, ^^ i think it has to do with lines 20-24 "Indeed, Brown argues that the distinctive style of the Venetian paintings—what she calls the 'eyewitness style'—was influenced by Venetian affinity for a strongly parochial type of historical writing."
