Which among the following palace is famous for its mural painting 'Gajendramoksha'?

  • A.Mattanchery Palace
  • B.Padmanabhapuram Palace
  • C.Chirakkal Palace
  • D.Krishnapuram Palace

Answer: D

The Gajendramoksha mural is at Krishnapuram Palace.

Krishnapuram Palace near Kayamkulam, rebuilt by Marthanda Varma of Travancore in the eighteenth century, holds the Gajendra Moksham mural, the story of Vishnu rescuing the elephant king from a crocodile. It is one of the largest single mural panels in Kerala.

Mattancherry Palace is known for its Ramayana murals, and Padmanabhapuram Palace for its own fine murals and woodwork, but neither is the home of this painting. Chirakkal Palace in Kannur was the seat of the Kolathiri rajas and is not known for it.
