Question
The Chola rulers were generally
Answer: Option B
Answer: (b)
The Chola rulers were generally Saivites. Among the existing specimens in museums around the world and in the temples of South India may be seen many fine figures of Shiva in various forms, such as Vishnu and his consort Lakshmi, and the Saivaite saints.
Though conforming generally to the iconographic conventions established by long tradition, the sculptors worked with great freedom in the 11th and 12th centuries to achieve a classic grace and grandeur.
The best example of this can be seen in the form of Nataraja the Divine Dancer.
