Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Pillars
Mauryan art encompasses the arts produced during the period of the Mauryan Empire. Although the art encompasses pillars, stupas, and caves, Pillars are the best specimen as the uniformity of style in the pillars suggests that they were all sculpted by craftsmen from the same region. They were also inscribed with edicts of Ashoka on Dhamma or righteousness.
