I would say "beautiful" could be more in depth. This person could explain how the painting is beautiful.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if I'm wrong :)

Answer:

Beautiful

Explanation:

The word here is generic and inexpressive since "beautiful" is the least that anyone would think of such a legendary painting such as da Vinci's Mona Lisa. The other options have words that express much better the intent of the writer than the word "beautiful" in this paragraph.
