Last year, Sapio Analytics has initiated preservation of images of Ajanta Caves photographed and digitally restored by Benoy K Behl, and the preservation of the same continued this year too. This year, the earliest surviving Hindu paintings, photographed and digitally restored by art historian Benoy K Behl, were also made a part of the prestigious archives."These paintings from Badami Caves reveal the existence of an ancient tradition of painting in India. This is extremely important because, till now, the world has been studying the tradition of Indian painting, beginning with the medieval period," said Hardik Somani, Director of Sapio Analytics, at the event.Images from another UNESCO World Heritage Site, Brihadeesvara Temple, have also been preserved for eternity in their original glory in this year's deposit.
