Dear All

I stumbled into this site and I think it had a great wealth of Pictures

http://www.art-and-archaeology.com/india/thanjavur/bri01.html

this particular image is interesting because I have heard guides saying this is Rajaraja Offering to the Lord(remember Pavi,Gokul,SB,Kamal,Krupa I was telling about this statue in front of Nandhi mandapam before)

Great Chola Bronzes

A good Justified information on the Temples

Exceprts from AK Sashstris book

of particular interest is the mention about the foreigner on the lateral surface again which we have discussed before

Hope you find this Useful
