Answer 1

Hi friend,
B) Talking of Michelangelo

Answer 2

B. Talking of Michelangelo

Step-by-step explanation:

The allusion is a figure of speech characterized by the use of a reference or quotation to a fact or person, necessarily known by the interlocutor. It is part of intertextuality, but its main difference is in clarity. In this case, the line "Speaking of Michelangelo" is making an allusion to Michelangelo.
