: Wood cut is a relief printing process.
Reason (R) : Because in relief printing the image is sunk below the surface and is printed.
Statement: “Woodcut is a relief printing process.”
This statement is true. Woodcut is indeed a relief printing technique where an image is carved into the surface of a block of wood. The raised areas of the block are then inked and pressed onto paper to transfer the image. The parts that are cut away do not print, leaving the image in relief.
Reason (R): “Because in relief printing the image is sunk below the surface and is printed.”
This reason is false. In relief printing, the image is raised above the surface, not sunk below it. The raised or uncut areas carry the ink and transfer the image onto the paper. The areas that are cut away or below the surface do not print, which is the defining characteristic of relief printing.
Assertion (A) : Indian art and culture inspired the development of art and culture in Southeast Asia.
Reason (R) : India colonised Southeast Asia during the ancient period.
Assertion (A): “Indian art and culture inspired the development of art and culture in Southeast Asia.”
This assertion is true. Indian art, religion (particularly Buddhism and Hinduism), architecture, language, and cultural practices had a significant influence on Southeast Asia from ancient times onwards. Trade and cultural exchanges played a crucial role in spreading Indian cultural elements to regions like present-day Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Myanmar. This influence is evident in the architecture of temples like Angkor Wat in Cambodia and Borobudur in Indonesia, as well as in local art styles, literature, and performing arts.
Reason (R): “India colonized Southeast Asia during the ancient period.”
This reason is false. India did not colonize Southeast Asia in the traditional sense of establishing permanent political control over the region. Instead, Indian cultural influence spread through peaceful means such as trade, religious missions (especially Buddhist monks), and cultural interactions. Indian merchants, scholars, and religious leaders traveled to Southeast Asia, contributing to the spread of Indian ideas and cultural practices. There were no large-scale Indian colonies or military conquests in Southeast Asia during ancient times.
ssertion (A) : Indian traditional metal casting is not categorised as ‘gravity cast’.
Reason (R) : In ‘gravity cast’, molten metal is not poured directly into the space of the burnt-out wax.
Assertion (A): “Indian traditional metal casting is not categorized as ‘gravity cast’.”
This assertion is false. Indian traditional metal casting, particularly the lost wax casting method (also known as cire perdue), does fall under the category of gravity casting. In this process, molten metal is poured into a mold from above, utilizing gravity to fill the mold cavity. This technique is commonly used in Indian traditional metal crafts, such as the casting of bronze sculptures.
Reason (R): “In ‘gravity cast’, molten metal is not poured directly into the space of the burnt-out wax.”
This reason is false or misleading. In gravity casting, molten metal is indeed poured directly into the mold cavity where the wax pattern was previously melted or burnt out (hence the term ‘lost wax’). The molten metal replaces the space left by the wax, resulting in a metal object that replicates the original wax pattern.
Who is is credited with changing of the term with his work of “Punch”.

ssertion (A) : Aquatint is known as a part of Engraving print making process.
Reason (R) : Because in Engraving printing process the image is sunk below the surface of the plate.
Code :
Assertion (A): “Aquatint is known as a part of Engraving print making process.”
This assertion is false. Aquatint is a part of the intaglio printmaking process, but it is not specifically an engraving. Engraving involves incising a design directly into a metal plate using a burin, whereas aquatint involves creating tonal effects by etching a plate through a resin that resists acid.
Reason (R): “Because in Engraving printing process the image is sunk below the surface of the plate.”
This reason is true. In the engraving process, the image is indeed sunk below the surface of the plate. The lines or areas to be printed are incised into the surface, and when inked, the ink sits in these recessed lines. When the plate is pressed onto paper, the ink transfers from these recessed lines to the paper.
. Assertion (A) : Kaolin is used effectively in the slip casting of ceramic sculpture from molds.
Reason (R) : Because of its high shrinkage rate.
Assertion (A): “Kaolin is used effectively in the slip casting of ceramic sculpture from molds.”
This assertion is true. Kaolin, also known as china clay, is a primary component of many ceramic slip casting mixtures due to its fine particle size, plasticity, and whiteness when fired.
Reason (R): “Because of its high shrinkage rate.”
This reason is false. Kaolin is actually valued in ceramics for its relatively low shrinkage compared to other clays, which makes it more predictable and stable during drying and firing. High shrinkage rates can lead to warping or cracking, which are undesirable traits in ceramics.
