File:Udayagiri Jain Caves Ei2-71.jpg
Sculptures at Udayagiri illustrate in an interesting way the
similarities and differences between the early style of Kalinga (ancient Orissa, in East India) and the contemporaneous art of
Sanchi in the Deccan. The carving shown here is from the facade of the upper level of Cave 1, located in the space between two arches over the monks' cells. Similarities, as seen here, include
the women's headdresses; the men's turbans; the large, square
earrings worn by both sexes; and many other details of style
and costume.
