Title:

Atru. Mahakalesvara Temple, doorway. Photographer: Bhandarkar, D.R.

Scope & Content:

Genre: Architectural Photography

Close view of elaborately sculptured doorway: 'About a mile from this place [Mahadeva Temple] is the shrine of Mahakalesvara, near the temple of Ganesa, the doorframe of which is very old. On the lintel, the post of honour is occupied by Siva, with Brahma and Vishnu to his right and left sides respectively. Between Brahma, Siva, and Bishnu, on the lintel, are Ganapati and the Saptramatris. The doorway has, at the bottom, Brahma on the right, and Siva on the left side. But whereas Brahma is in an ornamental niche, Siva is not, - showing that they are edges of two different doorways.' ('Progress Report of the Archaeological Survey of Western India for the year ending 30th June 1905', p. 49).
