Temples
The
great architectural movement which swept Rajasthan from the 8th to the
11th century was really a later flowering of the virile development
inspired by the Guptas during the 4th, 5th and 6th centuries. The 8th
and 9th century also saw new styles of temples emerging from the
Gurjara Pratihara dynasty from Mandore.
Temples built around this time also include temples at Chittorgarh and
Osiyan in western Rajasthan. The familiar feature of these temples is
single sikhara or spire and intricately carved outer chamber
called the mandup before the inner sanctum. In many temples the
main temple would be surrounded by series of small and finely carved
temples. A good example of these are Kalika Mata Temple and Kumbha
Shyam temples in the Chittorgarh fort. Temples
at Kiradu in western Barmer known as Solanki style are known for
sculptured frescos. The best example in this is the Someshvara Temple,
which has fine sculptured fresco, and a multi
tiered spire.
The
10th century saw the constructions of many splendid Jain Temple,
notable amongst them are the Dilwara Temples at Mt Abu, Mahavira
Temple at Ghanerao in southern Rajasthan and Ranakpur near Udaipur. At
Ranakpur the Chomukha meaning four faced is the finest. It features a
series of mandupas decorated with intricate carving giving a breath
taking symmetry. A group of Jain Temples at Jaisalmer are also
noteworthy.
A great deal of this fine architecture, however, was destroyed during
