Mentor’s comment-
- In the introduction briefly explain the coming of Bronze sculptures in India; one can start with the mention of the ‘Dancing girl’ figurine of Mohenjodaro.
- In the body first explain that the making of bronze sculptures reached a high stage of development in South India during the medieval period. Although bronze images were modeled and cast during the Pallava period in the eighth and ninth centuries. Then move onto highlight that the most elegant and exquisite statues were produced during the Chola Period. Discuss their key features; use the examples of kalyanasundara murti, Ardhanarishvara, Nataraja etc.
- Conclude by citing the importance of Chola period and how it continued to have profound relevance for our present-day
understanding of art and culture.

Hi Dakshina
Start your answer by writing the history of art and metallurgy in India.
You can quote the ‘Dancing Girl’ from Mohenjo-Daro is the earliest bronze sculpture datable to 2500 BCE.
Then write about the Chola bronze sculptures.
Write about the lost wax process.
Rest of the content is good and well placed.
Good conclusion.
Work on handwriting.
Keep working hard !

Hi Atif
First thing work on handwriting, write neat and legible and avoid scribbling.
Start your answer by writing the history of art and metallurgy in India.
You can quote the ‘Dancing Girl’ from Mohenjo-Daro is the earliest bronze sculpture datable to 2500 BCE.
Then write about the Chola bronze sculptures.
Give proper headings and quote various examples to substantiate your content.
Lackluster conclusion, you can write that the Chola period was an age of continuous improvement and refinement of Dravidian art and architecture. The circumstances in which bronzes were cast during this period, and the contexts within which they were and are sited, continue to have profound relevance for our present-day understanding of art and culture.
Work on sentence formation.
Do not get demotivated by the marks, keep writing, you will improve.
