DETERMINATON / Big Temple Sculpture
  • > In the Big temple sculpture, SIVAKAMI is also present ! Error ?
    > Unorthodox way ? A scholar explains " NO." On the contrary, very
    > orthodox.

    yet another amazing pieces of sculpture in Big temple. One more beauty
    of this sculpture is that it is represented as a storyboard and not
    like an independent icon - as in gangai konda cholapuram

    Storyboard panels are kind of exclusive to big temple. their origins
    lie with parantaka period miniatures and reach their zenith with
    raajarajeswaram. The trend continued and attained another height with
    nayanmar stories of dharasuram
