View of the doorway along the Northern Wall of the Mandapa
Description:
Closer view of the doorway along the northern wall of the mandapa (pillared hall) of Bhandasar Temple. The rectangular frame that holds the door has paintings, however, the arch and the doorway are in a different style. The painting of the musician couple has been added to the wooden doorway in the last decade or so. The addition of stained glass type of glass mosaic to the semi-circular arch is a colonial period influence. The glass arch is added to the doorway only from the inside. The exterior side of the same arches is closed.
