Option (A)

Explanation:

Venus of Willendorf usually refers to a paleolithic sculpture, which has a height of about 11 cm, and it is a statue of a female person. This sculpture was discovered by the archeologist in the year 1908, near the Willendorf village, which is a small village in the southern part of Austria. This sculpture is commonly known as the Woman of Willendorf.

This sculpture is found to be made in the upper Paleolithic period, which refers to the final period of the old Stone Age. This was dated to be about 25,000 BCE.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
