motif in miniature size, is seen above the shoulders.
Away from the pillars near the ceiling, there are miniature standing structures in dignified niches looking like a prasada (temple )motif, in conical shikharas.
On the southern wall there is a squarish panel of side 75 m. It contais Tritirthika with 'fish' kalasha and 'rhino' indicating that the images are (a) Aranatha, (b) Mallinatha and (c) Sreyamsnatha.
The Main Image on the western wall:
The back wall (west) of the upper chamber covers the mulanayaka, upto the waist. From this, it difficult to identify the image, as the feet and the pedestal on which, it stands are only seen in the ground chamber (plate21)
But getting down to the ground chamber and examining the pedestals, it can be found that the mukhapattika of the pedestal shows a recumbent 'bull' facing southwards. From this, it could be easily shown, that the image is Tirthankara, Rsabhanatha or Adinatha.
