c12.s2.1

While the most characteristic and distinctive sculptures of Gupta age occur in Northern India, the rock-cut shrines and monasteries of the west are adorned with numerous sculptures more or less closely related to those of the north. At Ajaṇṭā, interest having been concentrated chiefly on the paintings (Chap. VIII, Sec. 3), the accounts of the sculptures are meagre and good photographs are scarce.
