The murals of India have been established as one of the greatest and most sublime traditions of the art of the world. The murals on Ajanta Caves is one of the greatest art created ever in the history of humankind. This is India’s deepest cultural connection to all the countries of Asia. The paintings of Ajanta are recognized and deeply revered by art historians and Buddhist priests. I am proud to see my work on Ajanta Caves getting saved.

Ajanta caves are a testament of human brilliance in architecture, painting and sculpture. They are also a beautiful reminder of the important role religion played in our history. The easy and fluent style, strong and contrasting colours used to bring large groups of people to life through these paintings is simply awe inspiring. A visit to Ajanta caves always makes you feel humbled and you wish these paintings could stay on like these for eternity.

The Ajanta Caves are glorious cultural masterpieces – a testament to mankind’s culture. Documenting copies of the frescos and replicas of the murals is an essential exercise and will be wonderful for generations to come. A window into our history and heritage, these paintings depict unparalleled beauty. They provide a glimpse not only into the clothing and jewellery choices, but also depict social standing, customs and mores. I commend this initiative to preserve this timeless piece of history that will facilitate the understanding of art and wish you all the best.

Preserving art in film format for the future none if us will see, is a brilliant idea! In many ways the art of Ajanta is just that as well. Unknown, unnamed and indeed unrecognized artists even, have their art immortalized for us to see….after all these years! This step to preserve the art further is unique, and very far-thinking! So far thinking that none of us know how far even! Cheers to the future of the future then!

Ajanta paintings are possibly the finest surviving picture galleries from the ancient world. Now, the oldest in two of the caves – hidden for decades – have been painstakingly restored to reveal their true beauty. I believe that of all the primeval monuments in India, the rock-cut caves near Ajanta take a unique place by virtue of having the most perfect specimens of Indian mural paintings. They are second to none in the country, except probably that of the Taj Mahal. The name itself – Ajanta casts a spell on the Indian mind and invokes up a vision of artistic excellence attained by the ancient painter’s brush. These paintings provide the greatest inspiration in the art-revival of the last century, as they have influenced many centuries earlier

Inspired by Buddhism, the Ajanta Caves, exemplify a masterpiece of artistic excellence unmatched in human history. Exuding divine energy and power, these caves are one of the oldest UNESCO world heritage sites and rank among the top tourist attractions in Maharashtra. Carved between 2nd Century BC and 6th Century AD, the 30 rock-cut cave monuments present paintings based on the Jataka tales, besides depicting previous incarnations of the Buddha and various Buddhist deities. Despite the ravages of time, the grandeur of these sculptures and paintings will always stand out as India’s biggest contribution and artistic legacy to the world.

Ajanta caves are a set of caves which have no equal in the world. It’s amazing to see how our forefathers might have built it. Ajanta caves are one of the ancient sites which show the culture of India to the world. By far the best and unique real masterpiece of India; coloured paintings on the walls of the caves are marvellous and make these caves unique. Without visiting this place, you can never know about Indian history and understand how all three religions Hindu, Buddhism and Jainism evolved. The rock-cut monastery-temple cave complexes featuring Buddhist monuments and artwork, dating from 200 BC, makes you feel like you have come back in a time machine. The caves are so beautiful. An architectural marvel! There is a large Buddha statue in the back of the cave whose face seems to wear different facial expressions when seen from different angles.

Man has created the greatest serendipity in the form of Ajanta for the upcoming generations to preserve. Ajanta caves have made the glory and enlightenment of Buddha indelible for humankind.

The Ajanta murals, which are classic masterpieces of Buddhist art, not only reflect the grandeur of the yore but are a valuable gift from the past to be passed on to future generations. The recreation of ancient heritage and culture using artificial intelligence and deep learning technologies is a commendable effort that would help in keeping our rich history alive and will help the future generations in rediscovering these murals, through a new lens. I congratulate the Arctic World Archives for undertaking the herculean task of digitally archiving probably the world’s oldest and most celebrated specimens of frescos, known as the Ajanta Murals. Kudos to all the stakeholders for this feat!
