Solution
The correct option is C Both 1 and 2 The Pala period witnessed the last great phase of Buddhism and of Buddhist art in India. A large number of manuscripts on palm-leaf relating to the Buddhist themes were written. This made the composition look so simple and the surviving examples of the Pala illustrated manuscripts mostly belong to the Vajrayana school of Buddhism.
