View of the tank at a temple in Kanchipuram. At the center of the pool is a kiosk with carved pillars and an ornately carved, bell-shaped dome on the roof. A man stands on the right side of the image wrapped in a cloth with a book in his hands, and a second man sits on the top step of the stepwell that surrounds the pool. The buildings, pillared, stone porches, and gopuras are visible along the sides and in the background.
