This beautifully illustrated book showcases the Hindu and Jain
temples of Maharashtra, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka
built prior to the invasion of peninsular India by the Delhi
sultans at the end of the 13th century. Unlike temples in many
other parts of India, those of the Deccan are well preserved, with
their wealth of figural and decorative carvings miraculously
intact. They demonstrate the development of Indian sacred
architecture and art over a span of more than 600 years. Focusing
on some 50 historical sites, the Temples of Deccan India begins
with artificially excavated "cave" shrines dedicated to various
Hindu deities, before proceeding on to examine free-standing Hindu
and Jain monuments sponsored by successive rulers of the Deccan.
Attention is paid to the beautiful sculptures found on temple
basements, walls, brackets and ceilings. Carved in crisp relief,
and sometimes even in three dimensions, these carvings are among
the greatest glories of Indian stone art. Among the featured
highlights are the cave temple on the island of Elephanta, with its
stupendous representation of three-headed Sadashiva; the colossal,
monolithic Kailasa temple at Ellora, a technical feat unsurpassed
in the entire history of Indian architecture; the magnificent
columned pavilion at Hanamkonda, now currently being reconstructed;
and the temple at Belur, with its exquisitely carved female figural
brackets. Specially commissioned plans of temple layouts accompany
300+ photographs. and clarify the succession of dynasties that
governed the Deccan during the centuries covered here. Maps locate
the temple sites, while passages of text illuminate the succession
of dynasties that governed the Deccan from the 7th to 13th
centuries. Educational, accessible and beautifully illustrated,
this book will be of interest to anyone fascinated by Indian
architecture.
