Answer:

  1. Raja Ravi Varma was one of the first artists who tried to create a style that was both modern and national.
  2. He used the Western art of oil painting and realistic life study to paint themes from Indian mythology.
  3. He dramatised on canvas scene after scene from the Indian epics Ramayana and Mahabharata.
  4. This portrayal of an Indian consciousness is what makes his paintings national.
  5. This was perhaps one of the reasons why his paintings were popular not only among Indian princes and art collectors but also among the masses.
