It is now more than a century ago that the well-known *Essay on the Architecture of the Hindus*, by Ram Raz, Native Judge and Magistrate at Bangalore, was published. This book, which appeared after the author’s death, was mainly a summary of a Sanskrit work on architecture, called *Mānasāra*. Ram Raz’s Essay is a treatise of sixty-four pages, illustrated by means of forty-eight plates.
