• This scholarly work explores the religious iconography of Southern India, focusing on the strict and precise artistic traditions rooted in Hindu liturgical representation.
• While philosophical beliefs among sects have diverged over centuries, the depiction of gods and religious scenes has remained unified under rigid canonical guidelines.
• The study emphasizes the region along the Coromandel Coast, particularly areas within the Tamil-speaking districts such as Madras, Madura, Tanjore, Trichinopoly, and others.
• It delves into the rich heritage of Dravidian architecture and temple art, guided by religious norms that dictate the form and symbolism of divine imagery.
• A vital resource for students of Indian art, history, and religion, offering deep insights into the intersection of faith, culture, and sculpture in Tamil traditions.
