Book Description
The Present volume traces the evolutionary process of Hindu Temple on the basis of the extant examples at Chittorgadh, a large number of which are in ruins, and includes study of Sculpture and Iconography which have been integrally associated with the Temple since the earliest phases of its growth and development in the region. Precisely, this is study of the Art of the Hindu Temple.While, on the one hand, it covers the UBHA-DIWALA of Nagari which is one of the earliest relics of the historical period, on the other it identifies, and assesses the style of the early 14th century A.D. Muslim Monuments of Chittorgadh. Many unknown and important aspects of Art History, thus, come to light for the first time.Though study of the monuments in situ constitutes basis of this research work, and for this matter, it is illustrated by 4 Maps, 12 Drawings and 43 Plates; epigraphical, scriptural and literary data, so invaluable to a discipline such as this, has also been used. Extracts from original Sanskrit texts, in the Devanagari, have been given in the text of its chapters. Important Sanskrit Inscriptions on the history of the region have been given in six Appendices.It must be emphasized, however that though regionally, it is limited to Chittorgadh and it is accordingly entitles as such, stylistically it is representative of one of the most important formative phases of Indian Art and this study is not in isolation. An isolated study of early phases of Indian Art is not possible either.1.Gaumukha Tirthasthala of Chittorgadh2. Ubha Diwala of Nagari Chittorgadh3. Brick Temple of Chittorgadh4.
