If a given image is rotated $45^{\circ }$ anticlockwise, which of the following options will correctly match the new orientation?

Rotating any standard layout figure by $45^{\circ }$ in the counter-clockwise (anticlockwise) direction shifts its primary directional elements (such as arrows or vertices pointing straight/diagonally) exactly half a quadrant to the left, which correctly yields the structure represented by Option A.
