It is home to renowned artists and famous sculptures. The story of Indian art and sculpture dates back to antiquity. The Indus valley civilization of the 2nd and 3rd millennium BC has its roots. In the 3rd century BC, Indian sculptures breathed anew with the rise and spread of Buddhism. The Mauryan Emperor Ashoka adopted Buddhism

and set out on a mission to spread the teachings of the faith as far and wide as possible. In the process, he created some of the eternal sculptures of India. Buddhist sculptures of Sarnath, Sanchi, the Gandhara and Mathura school are still revered objects of art. The 4th, 5th and 6th centuries AD witnessed a tremendous resurgence of Hinduism as it became the official religion of the Gupta Empire. Thus, this era was also marked by the emergence of innumerable images of popular Hindu deities. Images of Vishnu, Shiva , Krishna , the Sun-God and goddess Durga evolved in this period. Mention should also be made of the art works at Ajanta, Ellora, Elephanta and Khajuraho. The trend of sculptures continues from the past and still is a vibrant and dynamic force shaping Indian art. Presently, Indian artists who have acquired the art of sculpting as a legacy from yore are crafting sculptures from a wide variety of materials, depicting several themes. Metals, wood, stones, clay and others are used in making beautiful art deco sculptures. From art galleries, to corporate houses till your furnished living room – these art deco sculptures are unique in beauty and appeal.
