Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book highlights the discovery, made for the first time after thirteen centuries, that the Pallava King Rajasimha immortalized himself in a dual sculpture at the Kailasanathar Temple in Kanchipuram. Sculptures featuring dual representations within a single figure are exceedingly rare in history. In this tradition, the book explores how King Rajasimha, seated at the entrance of the Kailasanathar Temple in Kanchipuram, ingeniously represented himself in a way that is difficult for others to perceive, akin to a figure within another. Using linguistic and sculptural grammar, the author confirms this unique interpretation of the king's self-portrait in the temple.
