Art Education
Symbolic meaning
प्रतीकात्मक अर्थ
In this Class 10 Art Education topic, students explore how Mauryan sculpture communicated ideas beyond physical form. Through examples such as Ashokan pillars, animal capitals, the lotus and the Dharma Chakra, they learn how symbols expressed authority, moral values, spiritual beliefs and connections with nature. The topic also develops skills in observing posture, gesture, scale, surface treatment and placement, helping students interpret how artistic choices shaped meaning in Mauryan Sculpture and its historical context.
