Hellenistic influence in Gandhara art is identified by which feature?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Wavy drapery and realistic figure

The governing historical concept is cultural interaction in Gandhara, a region where Indian Buddhist themes combined with Hellenistic and Roman artistic conventions. Hellenistic influence is visible in naturalistic human anatomy, carefully modelled facial features, wavy hair, and deeply carved, flowing drapery that resembles Greek and Roman sculpture. Thus option A correctly identifies the characteristic feature. Harappan brick proportions belong to an urban tradition much earlier than Gandhara art, Chola gopurams belong to South Indian temple architecture, and Pala palm-leaf formats relate to manuscript art. None of those explains the Greco-Roman appearance of Gandhara images.
