The Jain temple complex of Deogarh in Lalitpur District of Uttar Pradesh is a treasure-house of exquisite Jain sculptures from 8th to 17th century. More than 2000 images, that have survived the vagaries of nature and social upheavals offer a deep insight into the Jain iconography and speak volumes about this obscure site
