E). embraced formal rules and structure.

Explanation:

Classicism considered Ancient Greek art as the essence of beauty and perfection and attempts to recreate it in the seventeenth-century. Because of that, this art form seeks formal purity, balance, rigor, and to praise the human creations trough the Anthropocentrism philosophy.
