Abstract

Description

If the exterior of this temple does not show great elaboration, the pillars which support the ceilings, on the other hand, must be considered among the most beautiful of this style. They are more simple here than in the Vittal but delicately carved and the brackets are given their full decorative value. Here, the "drops of water" with which these efflorescent brackets used to end, have been broken off.
