Summary

edit
Description
English: Badami caves are located in Badami, Karnataka, India. Inscriptions here help date two of these caves to the 6th-century, while parts of the third cave and the most of the fourth is likely from the 7th-century. All were likely complete in 6th to 7th century, with some additions to the Jain caves likely in early 8th century.
  • The above panel shows a close up of Lakshmi from a Harihara panel in Badami caves.
  • There are green , red, white and red shades and fragments in parts of this panel. That is because the Badami caves were originally painted caves. Almost all of the original paint has been lost to history and natural elements, except for certain sections.
