They are characterized by their use of bright colors, gold leaf, and intricate detail. The &#8216;mukha&#8217; or face of the deity is a crucial element in Tanjore paintings, and it is often depicted with idealized features and a serene expression. This is in keeping with the Hindu belief that the deity is a manifestation of the divine, and that their image should be beautiful and awe-inspiring.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a) Realistic features are not always emphasized in Tanjore paintings. In fact, the faces of the deities are often idealized and stylized.<\/li>\n<li>c) Symbolism is not the primary focus of Tanjore paintings. While there may be some symbolic elements in the paintings, the main focus is on the beauty and expression of the deity.<\/li>\n<li>d) Anatomical accuracy is not a concern in Tanjore paintings. The faces of the deities are often depicted with exaggerated features, such as large eyes and a small mouth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Realistic features&#8221;
