Description: Emperor Chandragupta Maurya and sage Bhadrabahu. Stone carving from Chandragupta Basti temple at Shravanabelagola, Karnataka (12th century?). See Radhakumud Mookerji (1966), Chandragupta Maurya and His Times, p.40: "A smaller hill at Sravana Belgola is called Chandragiri, because Chandragupta lived and performed his penance there. On the same hill is [...] an ancient temple called Chandragupta-Basti, because it was erected by Chandragupta [according to Jain tradition]. Moreover, the facade of this basti or temple which is in the form of a perforated screen, contains 90 sculptured scenes depiciting events in the lives of Bhadrabahu and Chandragupta."
