Summary
[edit]DescriptionOuter walls of Larger Vishnu temple, Janjgir Chhattisgarh, archive late 19th century.jpg |
English: The original archival photo of the larger and smaller Vishnu temple in Janjgir was taken in 1873 and published in 1878 by Joseph Beglar ((ASI Vol VII, 1878, pp. 204-211). He wrote, "The temple is built in stone and is profusely sculptured everywhere, both inside and out, except the sanctum, which is perfectly plain. The whole of the walls are profusely sculptured with scenes from the Ramayana."
The original photo is now archived at the British Library, item number 10031204 (Shelf 1003/1204). The larger and smaller Vishnu temples at Janjgir are 12th-century temples dedicated to Visnu at the western side of a small Bhima lake in Janjgir (Champa). Now partially restored and an active temple for pilgrims, it features the original intricate reliefs of Vaishnavism, as well as the Shaivism and Shaktism traditions of Hinduism.
