Question

Paragraph in Hindi about Woodcraft in Tamil Nadu

Answer 1

Answer:

The tradition of wood carving has existed in India from ancient times. It is certain that it was practised in this country long before sculpture in stone, going back to pre–Mauryan times. The early wood-carved temples bear witness to the craft. Monuments like Ashoka’s palace at Pataliputra, and the magnificent temple at Bodh Gaya are fine examples. The carvers of Madurai, Tamil Nadu, known as asari-s, claim to be direct descendants of Vishwakarma, the celestial architect.
