Description

About The Book :The numerous engravings in the present volume, the extended letterpress, and the references to work of later labourers in the wide domain of Indian Architecture, will greatly diminish, but cannot entirely remove. The present volume divided into four parts, namely, Buddhist Architecture (Stambhas, Stupas, Chaitya Halls, Viharas and Gandhara Monasteries), Second part consists of informations regarding architecture in the Himalayas, the part three is about Dravidian style, (Hindu construction, Dravidian Rock-cut Temples, and Civil architecture). The part four is about Chalukyan Style. It cannot, ofcourse, be for one moment contended that India ever reached the intellectual supremacy of Greece, or the moral greatness of Rome, but though on a lower step of the lader, her arts are more original and more varied and her form of civilization present an ever changing variety such as are nowhere else to be found.
