Definitely:
B. Henry VIII's desire to divorce Catherine.

That's what got the whole thing started, though it took quite a few years. Henry tried to get his divorce annulled by the Pope on the basis that Catherine was his brother's wife before she married him. When this attempt failed, coupled with a certain amount of his own greed for the riches of the English clergy and the "new" Lutheran views that many people at his court were starting to adhere to, the setting for Reformation came about.

I've always understood it was Henry VIII's divorce that made it official.

John Gutzon Borglum was a very talented and famous sculptor and painter. He mainly became famous of his various sculptures. Borglum has studied art in a variety of places like San Frasisco, California, and Paris, France. John has also helped create a very famous monument in South Dakota. It was located in the Black Hills, and was called Mount Rushmore.

John Gutzon was born in Bear Lake, Idaho on March 25th, 1867 from Danish parents. He had been studying art in San Frasisco, and at the Academie Julian in Paris. John was influenced by great art modeling of the French sculptor, Augusta Rodin. In 1901 he was a successful painter in England and settled in New York City. John had also moved to a lot of places when he was a kid. First, he and his family moved to Los Angeles. His father did not like living in California, so he returned back to Nebraska, but Gutzon stayed behind. He studied art and met Elizabeth Jayne’s Putnam, a painter and divorcee eighteen years his senior. Lisa Putnam became a teacher and a mentor to Gutzon, and helped manage his career and advising his education. They were married in 1889.

John’s artistic styles were to sculpt things and to paint. His famous works included, Monumental Wars in America made in 1927, in Newark, New Jersey; Trail Drivers Memorial 1940 in San Antonio Texas. He also sculpted in Washington D.C, on a giant head of Abe Lincoln in 1908, and a statue of General Phillip Sherdan in 1909. Borglum’s younger brother Solan, was also noted a sculptor. The Borglum Family traveled to Paris so that he can work and study, and there Gutzon met Augusta Rodin. As much as he admired Rodin, more than one historian has suggested that the reason Gutzon gave up painting was to compete with his brother Solon. The reason why Borglum had chosen to make Mount Rushmore is when he had found that Stone Mountain was not finished. Borglum had many employees that were different but he had treated them the right way.

Borglum had never been anyone different than just by a painter or sculptor. His project was delayed for some time because of World War 1. In 1908 Borglum won a competition for a statue of the Civil War General Phillips Sherdan to be placed in Washington D.C. Another Version was made in Chicago in 1923. Other works for Borglum included the “Aviator” which was one of the more unusual pieces. Another impressive Borglum design is the North Carolina monument in Pennsylvania. The cast bronze sculpture depicts a wounded Confederate officer encouraging his men to push forward during Pickett’s Charge. Canadian artist Christian Cardell Corbet was the first Canadian to sculpt a medallion of Borglum.

John Gutzon Borglum died in 1941 from complications on a surgery. Borglum was buried at Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale in the Memorial Court of Honor.
