Rangamandapa

The peripheral columns of this mandapa are elaborate compositions. A yali with bulging eyes and elaborate scrollwork on its side rears over a large kneeling figure holding a dagger. Riding the yali is a diminutive mounted warrior who raises his sword. Elsewhere, piers have cut out colonnettes and are raised on bases carved as squatting yalis.
