In Sultan Ibrahim Adil Shah II hawking, the foliage and sky enhance its narrative. What does this narrative bring to the centrestage along with the face of the sultan?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → The white hawk
Option (1) The white hawk — Correct. The narrative brings the white hawk to the centrestage with the sultan’s face.
Option (2) The galloping horse — Incorrect. The horse generates energy that activates the landscape, but it is not what the narrative brings to the centrestage.
Option (3) The cranes — Incorrect. The cranes are placed in the background.
Option (4) The sunlit sky — Incorrect. The sunlit golden blue sky is one of the colours that enhance the narrative, not its centre.
NCERT (2026-27): “Sultan Ibrahim Adil Shah II hawking This is a painting of extraordinary energy and sensibility. …Besides, the dark dense forest foliage, deep olive green, emerald green and cobalt blue with cranes in the background and sunlit golden blue sky enhance the experience of the painting and its narrative, which brings the white hawk to the centrestage along with the delicately portrayed face of the sultan. …The galloping horse generates energy, which visually activates the entire panoramic landscape.”
