English: From the source:
Photograph of a band of narrative sculpture on a column in the Virupaksha Temple at Pattadakal, taken by Henry Cousens in the 1880s. Together with Badami and Aihole, Paddatakal was one of the capitals of the Early Chalukya Hindu dynasty rulers from the 6th century. The columns of the interior are decorated with bands of narrative friezes carved in high-relief depicting scenes from the epics of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, scrollwork and lotus medallions. The column in this view depict battles scenes from the Mahabharata; the figure carved in the middle band is Bhishma lying on his bed of arrows. |
