Dating back to the first and second millennium A. D. , these ancient sculptures stand as a testament to the enduring legacy of Indian architecture and religious devotion. Each delicate stroke on these stone carvings tells a story, depicting gods, goddesses, mythical creatures, and celestial beings that hold immense significance in Hindu mythology. The Temple of Belloor itself is an architectural marvel, with its grand structure reflecting both spiritual reverence and artistic brilliance. As we gaze upon this photograph captured in 1858 by Alinari, we can't help but be transported back in time to witness firsthand the profound impact that religion has had on shaping Indian culture.
