D. Journey's End

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. D, B, A, C
• B. D, A, C, B
• C. D, C, A, B
• D. D, A, B, C

Hint:

Journey's End (1913) is first and the Haripura Posters (1938) come after City in the Night.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understand the question:
We have to sort four modern Indian artworks by the year they were made.

Step 2: Place Journey's End:
Journey's End was painted by Abanindranath Tagore in 1913, in the early Bengal School period. It is the earliest work, so D comes first. All four options already start with D.

Step 3: Place Haripura Posters:
The Haripura Posters were made by Nandalal Bose for the 1938 Haripura session of the Indian National Congress.

Step 4: Place City in the Night:
City in the Night belongs to the early cubist or Bengal School phase, before the Haripura posters, so B comes before A.

Step 5: Place Woman with Child:
Woman with Child is a later work of the mid twentieth century, so C comes last.

Step 6: Check each option:
Option 1 gives D, B, A, C, which matches our order. Option 2 puts A before B. Option 3 puts C before A and B. Option 4 puts A before B.

Final Answer:
The correct sequence is D, B, A, C, which is option 1. \[ \boxed{\text{Option 1}} \]
