    SET 93 - HIMACHAL PRADESH Information and Photography by Ronald M. Bernier, Professor of Art History, Department of Fine Arts, Campus Box 318, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309. All slides ©AAAUM/Bernier These photographs were made as part of a research project that resulted in publication of Himalayan Towers - Temples and Palaces of Himachal Pradesh, New Delhi 110055, and they will be part of the forthcoming Himalayan Architecture, a pan-Himalayan study of architecture from the Assam foothills in the east to the heights of Pakistan's Hunza in the west. 9301. The remoteness of many unstudied villages in Himachal Pradesh is indicated by this settlement with bhandar temple storehouse in Simla District. 9302. Arki stands for traditions of the Indian plain, including Rajasthan, as they were borrowed in combination with Mughal patterns mountain kingdoms. 9303. The audience of the diwankhana or audience hall is on the upper floor of the small fortress at Arki, and its open balcony commands a fine view. The dry fresco paintings that are found on the Arki fortress walls and ceilings are lively, clear, and often have folk art directness while they also show an eagerness to borrow imported styles and illusionism. 9304. Arki battle scenes are especially fresh and lively as well as based in historical fact, with British forces appearing to be almost comical in their rigid battle formations. 9305. This floral design in the entry hall of the diwankhana is a brittle and bold variation upon Mughal patterns as it shows the band of a very local artist, no doubt. 9306.

College, Hoshiarpur (Punjab)- 146001 [email protected] Kangra (32’ 54N and 76’ 15E), the glorious kingdom of history and the present district of the state Himachal Pradesh has a rich heritage of art and culture developed and flourished particularly in its vicinity. It was ruled over by the Katoch rajput dynasty from the ancient times as the great epic Mahabharta carries the reference of its founder king Susharma Chandra who had fought against the Pandavas in Mahabharta. The Pandavas named it after Bhima as Bhim Kot (fort of Bhima). However its rule remained dominated by Katoch dynasty. In 326 BC when Alexender the Great invaded Punjab a Katoch prince was ruling this region. Kangra once was a part of the ancient kingdom Trigarta which was formerly also known as Jalandhara. During Gupta period, in the time of Harsha, the known Buddhist pilgrim Huien Tsiang visited to Jalandhar (Jalandharayana - She-Lan-To-Lo) in 643 A.D. that time Trigarta had two main provinces, major one in the plains with headquarter at Jalandhar and next in the hills with headquarter at Nagrkot or Kot Kangra (The present Kangra). He talked about its social stature and life at its bests. Mahmood Ghaznavi after defeating Hindu kings at Lahore advanced towards Kangra.
