Title:

Large sculptured slab with figure of Brahma, at Dharwar. 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. 121: '4 large massive slabs bearing sculptures of Siva (2 slabs), Brahma and Vishnu on Sesha. In 1885 they were found lying in the garden of Mr Fletcher's house. On enquiries being made in February 1893, it was found they had been built into the verandah of the house then in the occupancy of Mr J. Campbell, Agent, Southern Mahratta Railway. The slabs are supposed to have been brought from Badami some 25 years ago by Mr William Frere, formerly District Judge of Dharwar, who then occupied the house.' Prints 1912-1914 show the slabs before they were incorporated into Mr Campbell's bungalow.
