Deccan region distinctly mention stonecutters, masons and the chief artists, who
supervised the construction work. The stonecutters were called pishanikas, whereas
the masons were known as the selavaddhaki. The names of stonecutters and other
artisans are also known from Deccan region.47 The Indian sculptor had a glorious
tradition through the centuries, which resulted in several different schools of
sculptural art developing in various parts of the country.46
These sculptors must have worked very hard in presenting things from nature
like lotus and other vegetative forms, born of the primeval waters, trees with abundant
foliage and fruits, reptiles, animals from the hare to the lion, birds like cranes, swans,
quail, etc. On the monuments of the Deccan region till-date there is no single
comprehensive work that has studied this by combining together empirical data from
the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. There are some scholars,
namely, H. C. Raychaudari,49 R. G. Bhandarkar,50 Sumati Mulay,51 M. Dhavalikar,iJ
G. Yazdani," V. V. Krishna Sastry.*4 B. Subba Rao," M. L. K. Murthy,'6 M. S.
Nagaraja Rao,57 O. C. Gangoly58, R. N. Nandi,59 A. S. Altekar.60 who were interested
in focusing on the Deccan at the macro and micro levels but they primarily studied
pre and proto-historic period of the region or on general aspects of the history of the
Deccan. Even for historical periods few studies have taken up the theme of nature as
depicted by the sculptors on religious monuments. For historical periods the studies
have in particular emphasized on the social, cultural and political conditions of the
Deccan. Therefore, the present work is a humble endeavour in the direction of
documenting the depiction of nature in the sculptural art of the Deccan.
