The sculpture hall
It’s hard to imagine an open-aired structure that houses sculptures from the sixth century. So here’s a photograph to maybe make it clearer. Many of the sculptures that live here have been hacked about by Muslim invaders who didn’t tolerate representations of the human form. Not much has changed in that department!
By the way, sorry about the ad. I just can’t figure out how to get rid of it, and since my computer connection is so very slow, I’m trying to learn to live with it.

Hi Lynne, I am following this fabulous journey with great interest and excitement. What will you see next? What's a fitting punishment for femicide? How not to swathe the sculptures in bullet proof mausoleums? India is briliant, bright, fascinating, and so vast so the key is the focus, which is so well achieved, I think. In our miserably cold winter here it is virtually impossible to imagine that heat. I will keep on looking as you keep on showing.
