Details from the Arjuna's penance panel, Mamallapuram/Mahabalipuram, Tamil Nadu, India Circa 7th century A.D. This is an extensive panel (27 metres long & 9 metres high) of relief sculptures, with life size images. This skilfully carved rock is the largest bas - relief sculpture in the world. It gets its name from the figure of an ascetic who is believed to be Arjuna, the hero of Mahabharata, doing penance to obtain a boon from Lord Siva. However, there are others who think that the figure is actually Bhagiratha who entreated Siva to let the river Ganges flow over the earth.
