Beyond the Taj: Architectural Traditions and Landscape Experiences in South Asia

Cornell University has a tremendous holding of photographs that document the canonical works or "major moments" in the study of South Asian architectural traditions. Over 6,600 images from this truly unique collection have been placed online here, and persons with a penchant for South Asian culture will want to make return visits here. One particularly noteworthy section of this collection is the collection of images of 89 temples in Tamil Nadu, which are part of an unfinished study of a folk tradition by Professor Robert MacDougall. The entire collection is the result of a long-term collaboration between Professor Bonnie G. MacDougall and Margaret N. Webster, the director of the George W. & Adelaide Knight Visual Resources Facility on Cornell's campus. Visitors can use the "View Collection" to wander through the many items here, and they may also wish to use the search engine to focus in on certain items of interest.
