Observe the image and answer the following question.
What time of day is shown in the background of Abanindranath Tagore’s Journey’s End?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Dusk
The red background is dusk, so the end of the day stands for the end of the camel’s journey.
NCERT (2026-27): “Journey’s End Made by Abanindranath Tagore (1871–1951) in 1913, this painting is in watercolour. … The wash technique yields a soft, misty and impressionistic landscape. This quality of hazy and atmospheric effects of the wash are utilised to be suggestive or evocative of an end of a life. In this painting, a collapsed camel is shown in red background of dusk and in that sense it personifies the end of a journey through the end of a day.”
