Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept:
A muralist is an artist known mainly for wall paintings or large-scale architectural surface paintings. Some artists are mainly known for painting, printmaking or modern art rather than mural work.

Step 1: Check M. F. Hussain.
M. F. Hussain is mainly known as a modern painter. In this option set, he is counted among those not identified primarily as muralists. So: \[ A = \text{Not muralist in this list} \]

Step 2: Check Jyothi Bhatt.
Jyothi Bhatt is known for painting, printmaking and photography. He is not primarily listed as a muralist here. So: \[ B = \text{Not muralist} \]

Step 3: Check Amrita Shergil.
Amrita Shergil is famous as a modern painter. She is not known as a muralist. So: \[ C = \text{Not muralist} \]

Step 4: Final conclusion.
The artists not counted as muralists in the given list are: \[ A,\ B,\ C \] Hence: \[ \boxed{\text{(A) A, B and C only}} \]
