    Select the correct option from the codes given below:

    Only 1

    Incorrect Answer

     Only 2

    Incorrect Answer

    Both 1 & 2

    Incorrect Answer

    Neither 1 nor 2

    Correct Answer
    Explanation:

    Murals are large works executed on the walls of solid structures, as in the Ajanta Caves and the Kailashnath temple. Miniature paintings are executed on a very small scale for books or albums on perishable material such as paper and cloth. Fresco is a technique of mural painting executed upon freshly laid lime plaster. This implies that the Fresco is done on wet plaster and that is why it is more durable work than Mural. Murals are painted on already dried surfaces. Remember (Fresco derived from Italian word which means Fresh)
