A sepia-toned historical photograph of the ruins of an ancient stone temple, the Martand Sun Temple, on a flat, barren plateau with distant hills under a hazy sky. The remaining walls, doorway and pillars of the structure are weathered and broken, surrounded by scattered rubble and a dirt path in the foreground. A row of columns extends along the right side. No people are visible, and no a person candidate appears in the scene.

A black-and-white archival photograph, appearing as an aged printed postcard with a white border, showing the weathered ruins of a row of stone structures on open, flat ground under a cloudy sky. Several multi-storey towers with arched and window openings stand in a line, with a broken wall section in the centre-left and a tall tiered tower near the middle. No physical people are visible.

Three people walk away from the camera along the path: the left figure in a white garment carries a small bag, the centre figure in a light wrap carries a large white bundle or container, and the right figure in a pale garment walks behind. Their clothing is simple white and cream, and the landscape is arid and open under a pale sky. A faint photo credit appears in the lower right corner.2017-11-201978 - Arulmigu Arunachaleshwara Temple1978 - Arulmigu Arunachaleshwara TempleA wide photograph of a flood-damaged rural landscape under a pale hazy sky.
