Temple Architecture And Art Of The Early Chalukyas: Badami, Mahakuta, Aihole, Pattadakal

The temples of the Early Calukyas, dating from the 6th to 8th centuries, are unrivalled in all of India for the generally excellent condition in view of their great antiquity. This definitive text is the first to fully describe and illustrate the Early Chalukya temples in Badami, and nearly Mahakuta, Aihole and Pattadakal. It is complemented by some 200 newly commissioned photographs by Surendra Kumar that are outstanding in their composition and definition. It is an invaluable contribution to Calukya Studies.
