Question

Observe the image given below and answer the following questions.

In which year this painting is executed?

• A. 1921
• B. 1922
• C. 1923
• D. 1924

Hint:

Recall the year given in the textbook caption of this Cubist painting.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Understanding the Question:
We have to give the year of execution of the Cubist style painting shown.

Key Formula or Approach:
This is a recall question. Gaganendranath Tagore painted his Cubist works in the early 1920s, and this one is usually dated to 1922.

Step 1: Option 1:
1921 is the year in which he was only starting to experiment with Cubist ideas. The shown work is not dated to this year, so option 1 is wrong.

Step 2: Option 2:
1922 is the date usually given for this painting. So option 2 is right.

Step 3: Option 3:
1923 is close but is not the recorded date of this work. Option 3 is wrong.

Step 4: Option 4:
1924 is also not the recorded date. Option 4 is wrong.

Final Answer:
The painting is dated 1922, so the answer is option 2. \[ \boxed{\text{1922}} \]
