European art is part of Western art. Current focus:
A focused space to practise, revisit mistakes and trace your study material to its source.
158 built-in questions are ready: 135 original practice + 23 selected past questions. Fourteen PYQ answers match official final keys; nine are reference-checked. The complete ten-year bank is still incomplete. Use the tracker to practise a year. / 158 प्रश्न उपलब्ध हैं; पूरे दस वर्षों का संग्रह अभी अधूरा है।
These links help locate papers and keys. A source link does not mean that every session has been collected or verified. Early NET years used a different paper structure. Match each paper to its exact session and final key.
17 direct official PDF references. Linked papers have not been transcribed or paired into a complete solved bank. Original sources retain their rights and may change availability.
Choose up to 10 PDFs, maximum 20 MB each. Files stay in this browser’s storage. Saving to the shelf does not import questions. Use Extract → Review → Import below. Keep the original PDFs: JSON backups do not include them.
All 10 common units and the Drawing & Painting elective are mapped from your supplied NET syllabus. These short notes are revision aids; question coverage is partial. / ये संक्षिप्त पुनरावृत्ति नोट्स हैं।

Import a UTF-8 JSON file with a questions array, or a plain array. Use papers you may lawfully use. This importer does not extract PDFs or grant redistribution rights to purchased books.
For bilingual explanations also supply questionHi, optionsHi and explanationHi. Group can be indian, western, aesthetics, techniques or digital.
Each entry needs: id, question, four options, answer (0–3), topic, explanation and sourceUrl. Past questions also need year (2016–2025), exam, session and questionId. All imported answers are marked unverified, regardless of labels in the file.
Backups contain imported questions, answer history, mastered/known lists, study-time categories and completed-session summaries. Restore does not resume an active test from another device. There is no account sync or shared student database.
Prehistory → Indus → Maurya, Buddhist and Gupta art → Ajanta and later murals → temple styles → Rajasthani, Mughal, Deccani, Pahari and Company schools → Bengal School → modern and contemporary artists → folk traditions.

षडंग, रस और स्थायी भाव; Bharata, Abhinavagupta and aesthetic interpretation; Plato–Aristotle, Kant, art appreciation and criticism. Learn definitions with examples, not names alone.
Fresco/secco, tempera, oil, watercolour, wasli; relief/intaglio/lithography; modelling, carving, casting; line, colour, balance, rhythm and perspective. Digital and applied-art topics are NET extensions until PGT relevance is confirmed.
Coverage gap: the 100-question foundation bank samples these areas; it does not cover every period above. Artwork-image questions, full Greek/Roman surveys, several modern movements and a verified 10-year PYQ bank still need expansion.
Use your official UPESSC syllabus to select topics. NET questions supplement the overlapping content; NET scores do not predict PGT selection.
Read one syllabus topic. Make a compact timeline or artist–artwork table.
Attempt relevant MCQs with books closed. Separate a remembered answer from a guess.
Check incorrect answers against the final key or a named reference. Record disputed items.
Review after 1, 3, 7 and 14 days. Include artwork recognition and comparison.
