Option b is the correct answer. The Prayag Prashasti is an inscription that was composed in the 4th century CE to eulogize the Gupta emperor Samudragupta. The inscription describes Samudragupta as a man of many talents, including his sharp and polished intellect, his fine musical performances, and his poetic talent. However, the inscription does not mention Samudragupta as an accomplished sculptor. Important Tips Samudragupta, who reigned from 335/336 CE to 375 CE, was known as the "Napoleon of India" according to V.A. Smith. His military campaigns are documented in inscriptions such as the Eran inscription in Madhya Pradesh and the Allahabad Pillar Inscription (PrayagaPrashasti). He pursued a policy of war and conquest. Additionally, Samudragupta issued coins bearing the inscription "Restorer of the Asvamedha," indicating his association with the ritual horse sacrifice.
