In which field was Greek influence seen in India?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Sculpture

The direct answer is A: Greek influence in India is especially visible in sculpture. Cultural influence can be seen when artistic ideas, styles, forms, or techniques move between societies. In ancient India, the Gandhara school of art showed strong Hellenistic or Greek influence. Its sculptures often used realistic human forms, particular clothing and body treatment, and artistic features associated with Greek traditions, while representing Indian religious subjects such as the Buddha. Option A is correct because sculpture is an art form in which this influence is directly observed. Option B is wrong because rainfall measurement is not the standard example of Greek influence asked about here. Option C is merely a natural-material phrase, not a field of cultural influence. Option D refers to a commodity and does not identify an artistic or civilizational influence. Do not think that “Greek influence” means that all Indian culture became Greek; it means selected ideas and styles affected particular fields. Exam cue: Greek or Hellenistic influence in ancient Indian history is commonly linked with Gandhara sculpture.
