Pathak – The Guide
Guided By Prof. Shilpa Ranade

The project aims to create awareness about the Ajanta caves and is a tribute to all great artists who dedicated their lives to it.

When King Siddhartha became the enlightened Gautama Buddha, he set in motion the wheel of dharma by propagating wisdom and generosity.

The beautiful paintings and sculptures in the spectacular caves of Ajanta are a form of gratitude towards the Great Buddha. The techniques artists used are perfect, use of pigment and execution of painting are extremely refined. The artists who worked in the Ajanta caves were excellent but there work was completely unknown, they were selfless artists who didn’t care about fame or glory.
