Ajanta caves

अजंता की गुफाएँ

In this Class 10 Art Education topic, students explore the Ajanta caves as an important centre of Indian painting and Buddhist art. They study the murals, their narrative scenes, expressive figures, gestures, composition, colour use and natural pigments, while understanding how the cave architecture supports the paintings. The topic also introduces the cultural, religious and historical context of Ajanta Painting, along with the importance of preserving this heritage for future generations.
