Question

Elaborate the significance of art and in which it flourished in indian subcontinent

Answer 1

Indian art is the term commonly used to designate the art of the Indian subcontinent, which includes the present political divisions of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Although a relationship between political history and the history of Indian art before the advent of Islam is at best problematical, a brief review will provide a broad context. The earliest urban culture of the subcontinent is represented by the Indus Valley civilization (c. 2500-1800 BC), which possessed several flourishing cities not only in the Indus Valley but also in Gujarat and Rajasthan.
