I visited Somnathpura Karnataka India after a long time . Again I am feeling that I should have spent more time as the art is just flowing from nook and corner.
As Always I would like the gems from this great workmanship in art by my favourite Hoysala Architecture do all the talking !
A Village Scene.. Can see pottery making
Mahishasura Mardhini Panel . Notice the curves on the Buffalo's Back
One of the most beautiful Vimana one can ever see among Indian Temples
One of the most beautiful Ceiling with Flower bend design and the Designs in stone
Culmination of different architecture Styles and improvements is what Hoysala Architecture is !
Beautiful Carvings on the Outer linings of the temple with beautiful Floral Designs
Beautiful Carvings on the Horses and camels
Side by Side: An Incomplete and complete Panel of Makara .. shows the level of workmanship
Probably a scene from Srimad Bhagvatam. Notice the depiction of Aqua based Fauna
