About the Book
La Création D'une Iconographie Sivaite Narrative is a detailed French-language study examining the development of narrative Śaiva iconography in the temple architecture of the Pallava period. The book explores how various incarnations and mythological manifestations of Siva were visually represented in temple sculpture and relief panels, shaping a coherent narrative tradition in South Indian sacred art. Supported by extensive black-and-white illustrations, the work offers in-depth iconographic analysis, historical context, and interpretation of artistic symbolism within Pallava temple complexes. This volume is an important resource for scholars, art historians, and researchers interested in South Indian temple art, Śaiva traditions, and early medieval Indian iconography.
