Bhubane艣var墨, So岣峚s墨 and Bhairav墨. These paintings are executed in the traditional Patta style paintings of Orissa. The other paintings, which are depicted in the walls, are Vana-Durg膩, Vadrak膩岣纺�, Vima岣纺�, Hara Can岣嵞�, Mat膩ng墨n墨 and Jaya-Durg膩. The local artists of Puri have excuted these paintings. Date of the Temple According to K.C. Panigrahi, the present temple of Vima岣纺� appears to have been constructed during the Ganga period and it is likely that has been built on the foundation of an earlier 艢膩kta Shrine dedicated to a goddess.10 M膩da岣纺乸膩nj墨 states that the first temple was erected by Yay膩t墨 Keshar墨 (AD 922-955 AD), the Somava峁僺i king of Orissa." According to N.K. Sahu and K.N. Mahapatra, the existing temple was built by the great king Ananta Varman Co岣峚ganga Deva in the first half of the 12th century A.D.12 It appears that in the Somava峁僺i period the S膩kta shrine of goddess Vima岣纺� was totally incorporated into the newly built temple complex of Lord Jagannatha. On the basis of the architectural style, it may be presumed that the construction period of the vim膩na or the main deu岣穉 of present Vima岣纺� temple can be tentatively assigned to the rule of imperial Gangas. Most probably, it was constructed in the 12th century AD, while the sculptures, especially the p膩rsvadevat膩s seem to have been made during the Somava峁僺i period. Because the background slabs of the side deities are not decorated with the trefoil arch, which was the usual pattern of the Somava峁僺i art. The images of the p膩rsvadevat膩s are not designed in the Ganga style of sculptures. It indicates that these images are the side deities of the earlier temple. So it appears that the present Vima岣纺� temple was erected on the foundation of the earlier deu岣穉. The other structures of the Vima岣纺� temple indicate that they were constructed in the later period of the main deu岣穉 or the vim膩na. According to Surya N膩r膩ya峁嘺 Dash, the bhogamandapa of the Vima岣纺� temple was constructed by Divyasi峁僪a Deva (AD 1703 to 1720 AD), the Mah膩r膩j膩 of P膩rl膩k峁�emundi.鹿鲁 Most probably, the structure of the bhogama峁囜笉apa was added in the later medieval period of Orissa history. 13 2.
