(Figure 19) Tiger- 'Six female singers in a circle surrounding the male figure' Today we can see copies of the above paintings in a barahadi of 'Gujri Mahal of Gwalior Fort'. 1)    Formation period of Bagh Caves The Bagh Caves are among the best examples of the Gupta period and their painting style is the basis of the Ajanta style. There are many controversies related to the construction of Bagh Caves, due to which it is very difficult to determine the different periods of creation of these caves, because the stone of the rocks here is also very soft, due to this, writings could not be engraved on it, nor Stone ornamentation and sculpture would have been possible and ultimately painting would have been the most suitable medium of expression. The painted evidence has also unfortunately been destroyed, only the letter 'K' is written in these caves.

         Udti Hui Apsharae and indrr ka Ankan (1) Drafting: If Ajanta is called 'mine of drafting' then it would not be an exaggeration. To decorate the caves of Ajanta, to fill the empty spaces, artists have painted designs similar to the paintings related to Lord Buddha on the main entrances, roofs, pillars etc. of the caves. Not only this, drawings with decorative touches have also been made on clothes, crowns, jewelery etc. as per the need. In these drawings, the painter has used beautiful forms, animals, birds, flowers and creepers, in which monkeys, Taurus, Pisces, Capricorn, deer, Mahisha, swan, parrot and duck have been depicted with their natural freedom.
