Close view of carved lintel in the Ayeshvara Temple, Sinnar, Nasik District. Photographer: Cousens, Henry
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
Henry Cousens, 'Revised list of antiquarian remains in the Bombay Presidency ... originally compiled by J. Burgess' (Bombay, 1897), p. 50: 'A most superb piece of carving spans the entrance to the antechamber and is one of the finest pieces of chiselled decorative work to be found in any shrine in Western India. The central portion of this great slab is a group representing the tandava, the figures being remarkably well and boldly cut. On either side of this is the conventional makara from whose mouths an arch of little figures rises over the heads of the figures in the group, and whose tails curl up above their bodies in the most wild exuberance of whorls and rolls of the richest arabesque.'
