Explanation:

Bengal group of painters declared that Ravi Verma’s
style was unsuitable for depicting the nation’s ancient myths andlegends.
They turned to the inspiration to medieval Indian traditions of theminiature paintings and ancient art of mural paintings in Ajanta Caves.
The paintings of Ajanta and Bagh, Mogul, Rajput and Pahari miniaturesprovided the models.
The continuity of earlier traditions was sought to be maintained byborrowing from legends and classical literature like the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, Gita, and Puranas, the writings of Kalidasa and Omar Khayyam.
This eventually led to the development of the modern Indian painting.
