Title:

Tilasma. Temple of Talesvara Mahadeva [or Bhaveshvara], front. Photographer: Bhandarkar, D.R.

Scope & Content:

Genre: Architectural Photography

General view from side. 'Six miles to the east of Jadoli is Tilasma, the old temples of which are all situated within a walled enclosure, more or less dilapidated. The enclosure has an old sculptured gateway on the west side, from which runs a flight of steps reaching to a spacious kunda. The most prominent and important of these temples is that of Talesvara Mahadeva, as called by the people, but of Bhavesvara as appears from at least two inscriptions in the temple itself. The temple faces the west and consists of a shrine, a sabhamandapa, and a porch...The sabhamandapa is supported on two side walls, with perforated screens, and on two pilasters and four pillars, which are in line with the sides of the porch and the shrine doorway. The pillars and pilasters hold, in relief, two or three figures, with their ornaments deeply and artistically carved, and all facing a person passing from the entrance to the sanctum...The exteriors of both the hall and the shrine are plain...The sikhara is in the Gujarat style, and shows signs of its having been plastered...' ('Progress Report of the Archaeological Survey of Western India for the year ending 30th June 1905', pp. 55-56).
