    Uploaded by

    MangalSinghBesra
    Indian architecture, sculpture, and pottery show key differences. Architecture involves engineering and accurate measurements in designing and constructing buildings. Sculptures are relatively small 3D works of art made from a single material using creativity rather than measurements. Examples of Indian architecture include the Taj Mahal and Red Fort, while sculptures include the Nataraja image and Dancing Girl. Indian architecture can be classified into ancient, medieval, and modern periods featuring sites like Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro with granaries, baths, and sculptures.
