This three-volume set offers a comprehensive study of the exquisite Hoysala style of architecture, with a focus on three monumental temples: the Kesava Temple of Belur, the Kesava Temple at Somanathapur, and the Lakshmidevi Temple at Dodda Gaddavalli. These temples, built by the Hoysala King Vishnuvardhana in AD 1117, are renowned for their architectural beauty and intricate sculptures. The Hoysala style is considered one of the most advanced and intricate architectural designs of its time, showcasing an unparalleled level of craftsmanship.
Narasimhachar’s work is the only in-depth study of the architecture and sculpture from this golden age of South Indian art. The series delves into the details of construction, design, and artistic features that make these temples masterpieces. It also highlights the rich cultural heritage of South India and its importance in the fields of architecture, archaeology, and tourism. This series is a valuable resource for architects, archaeologists, and those interested in the artistic and historical significance of the region.
