A wish has been expressed in several quarters that the mass of literature bearing on temple architecture and iconography which is increasing in volume ought to be embodied in permanent form. Very rare literature is available on the Hoysala and Dravandian styles of architecture in the state of Mysore, which is unique in its architectural and structural point of view.

This present work on the “Kesava Temple at Somanathapur” furnishes an immense amount of entirely new matter descriptive of the sculpture and architecture of this magnificent style of temple building.

The extraordinary wealth of the artistic products of the Hoysalan and Dravadian styles of architecture have aroused tremendous interest. Considering the interest that was generated, R. Narasimhachar prepared three monographes on this style of architecture and this is the first in the series of which other two are also available.

The publishers take much pleasure in announcing the complete series on, “The Architecture & Sculpture in Mysore” in three beautiful prepared volumes.
