File:Artwork At Jain And Hindu Nagaraja Temple Nagercoil, Tamil Nadu.jpg

Above upper images are of Jain Tirthankaras: seated Mahavira found in the mandapam in front of temple's sanctum; standing Parsvanatha with 5-headed Naga shielding over him. The lower image is of two early brass statues found in the temple, with Naga crowning over them. These brass images can either be Jain or Hindu icons, states T.A. Gopinatha Rao.

This photo was taken and published in 1910 by TA Gopinatha Rao in Travancore Archaeological Series 1 and 2. This is a photograph of a personal copy of the archived 2-D original, and therefore wikimedia commons PD-Art guidelines apply. Any rights I have as a photographer, I herewith donate it to the public domain through wikimedia commons CC0.
