Description
This artwork is a detailed pen-and-ink drawing of an ancient temple nestled in a dense jungle. The temple features a distinctly South Indian architectural style, inspired by Dravidian temple structures. Its prominent tiered gopuram, intricate carvings, and ornate entrance are hallmarks of South Indian temples, particularly those built during the Chola or Pallava dynasties. The composition frames the temple with large, twisted trees in the foreground, creating a dramatic, almost cinematic perspective. The thick foliage, hanging roots, and scattered palm trees evoke a sense of mystery and abandonment, suggesting that the temple is ancient and possibly forgotten by time. If you knew this is actually Cambodia, would that surprise you? Size of painting :20x28inches / When framed with a 3inch border 3inch and 0.5inch wood frame, the painting will be approx 27x35 inches
