LR Supplemetal #5 Q. 521

Hello, I did this question but and I see why C is correct but why isn't D correct also. All the works in the museum are 20th century and its not part of the permanent collection and it has to be from either the permanent collection or on loan from a collector? Thank you

jk,

Although the museum only displays twentieth-century works that are either on loan from private collectors or in the museum's permanent collection, there is nothing in the stimulus saying that the prints sold in the store are restricted only to things the museum displays. Thus, answer choice (D) goes beyond the information in the stimulus, and does not have to be true. The store might sell prints of works that are not displayed in the museum at all; that is perfectly consistent with the facts of the stimulus, so you cannot infer that Nighthawks is a print of the kind of work that the museum displays.
