Solution

The correct option is E prerogative - opposition
The word 'prerogative' means a right or privilege exclusive to a particular individual or class and best befits the context of the first blank whereas the word 'opposition' means resistance or dissent, expressed in action or argument which fits the context of the second blank. Thus E is the correct answer- it fits the given context and conveys the required meaning.
Since ancient times sculpture has been considered the prerogative of men; women sculptors have, until recently, consistently met with opposition.
None of the other choices fit the context.
