No. IV.
THE PORTICO OF AN EXCAVATED TEMPLE ON THE ISLAND OF SALSETTE.
This Temple is about one hundred and thirty-seven feet in length, thirty-nine feet in width, and thirty-six feet in height, the whole cut out of the natural rock. The large figure at the end of the portico is twenty-two feet in height, and evidently represents the idol Boodha. A figure nearly of the same design and dimensions is sculptured on the opposite wall.
There are several female figures in basso-relievo in the portico, a circumstance very unusual in the Bhood temples.
