why great art (dancing girl of mohenjodaro) has power
Answers
Explanation:
Dancing Girl is a prehistoric bronze sculpture made in the lost-wax process about c. 2300-1750 BCE in the Indus Valley Civilisation city of Mohenjo daro (in modern-day Sindh Province Pakistan),[1] which was one of the earliest cities. The statue is 10.5 centimetres (4.1 in) tall, and depicts a naked young woman or girl with stylized proportions standing in a confident, naturalistic pose. Dancing Girl is well-regarded as a work of art, and is a cultural artefact of the Indus Valley Civilisation. The statuette was discovered by British archaeologist Ernest Mackay in the "HR area" of Mohenjo-daro in 1926, prior to the Partition of India. It is held by the National Museum, New Delhi, and ownership is disputed by Pakistan.[2].
