题目材料：

Few central Asian textiles from the Timurid period (1370-1526 C.E.) have survived to be dated. However, scholars have long assumed that Timurid rugs with geometric patterns were replaced in royal courts by floral patterned rugs only at the end of the 1400s, under the influence of the painter Behzād (circa 1455-circa 1536). Nevertheless, the presence of floral-patterned rugs in court scenes from two paintings in a 1440s Timurid manuscript suggests that floral-patterned rugs were already being used at that time. Whether the occasional presence of geometric rugs in similar paintings after the 1440s means the tradition of weaving rugs with geometric patterns also continued, or whether here the painters simply followed a well-established formula, is still an open question.

Which of the following statements best describes the function of the highlighted sentence in the context of the passage as a whole?

A.It notes a fact about Timurid rugs that explains why they have been the subject of scholarly controversy.
B.It emphasizes the fragility of central Asian textiles from the period in question.
C.It situates Timurid rugs within the wider context of textile arts from the same period.
D.It suggests why the author is relying upon indirect evidence for the dating of trends in Timurid rugs.
E.It describes a constraint on the study of Timurid rugs that the author thinks has been overemphasized.
