One could find the ambiance of spirituality and love for Lord Shiva could also be noticed at the gallery. The spectators were awestruck to watch the rare pictures of temples, lingam and portraits of Lord Shiva there.
The visitors were awestruck while having a look at the pictures. The pictures actually become lively at the first glance. It was like a feast for the Lord Shiva worshipers as they could see very rare pictures of Mahadev.
