Linga Schrijn in de grotten van Elefanta c. 1895 - 1915

This black and white photograph, taken by Clifton & Co. between 1895 and 1915, shows the Linga Shrine at the Elephanta Caves in India. The image captures the intricate details of the shrine, featuring two carved figures flanking the entrance. The central doorway leads to the inner sanctum where the linga, a symbolic representation of Shiva, is located. The Elephanta Caves, known for their impressive rock-cut sculptures, are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The photograph is a valuable document of the shrine's architectural and religious significance.
