Ellora Cave 1 to 5

Cave 1 is a plain vihara with eight small monastic cells. It may have served as a granary for the larger halls.
Cave 2 is much more impressive and is dedicated to Lord Buddha, reached through a flight of steps. A large central chamber supported by 12 great square pillars is lined with sculptures of seated Buddhas. The pillars are adorned with cushion brackets. The doorway into the sanctuary is flanked by a muscular Padmapani, holding a lotus, and a bejeweled Maitreya, the Future Buddha. Both are accompanied by their consorts. Inside the shrine is a stately seated Buddha on a lion throne.
Caves 3 and 4 have a similar design as Cave 2, but are in poor condition.

How was this done in a dark cave? Are there any soot markings in the cave?
