Title:

General view of the Nandishvara Dvipa, in the Nandishvara Dvipa Tuk, Satrunjaya. Photographer: Cousens, Henry

Scope & Content:

Genre: Architectural Photography

View of main façade and entrance porch of the temple. There is confusion between various sources as to the precise location of this temple. George Michell, 'The Penguin guide to the monuments of India' (vol I, London, 1989), p. 308, states that the temple is within the Tuk of Sheth Hemabhai Vakatachand, situated to the north-east of the Tuk of Lalachand Modi Premchand. Burgess and Cousens, however, in their 'Revised lists of antiquarian remains in the Bombay Presidency' (Bombay, 1897), p. 272, place the temple within the tuk directly tro the south of the Tuk of Sakarachand Premchand: this they call the Nandishvara Dvipa Tuk, but which is listed in Michell as the Tuk of Ujambi Hemabhai. However, Burgess in his 'The temples of Satrunjaya' (Bombay, 1869), p. 22, gives Ujambi Hemabhai as an alternative name for the temple, and this location has therefore been accepted. The confusion probably arises from the fact that, as Burgess notes (p. 22), the tuk listed by Michell as that of Ujambi Hemabhai, was also known as the Tuk of Hemabhai Vakatachand.
