On the comparison of the pedestals employed in the early periods of Indian and European architecture, Rām Rāz and others are of opinion that 'the most finished specimens of them (Indian pedestals) may be justly said to surpass anything of the kind in the Grecian or Roman orders, both in the beauty of their proportions and the richness of their ornament.'—(Rām Rāz, p. 23.)
