Built to
commemorate the services of a great Dewan,
the foundation stone of this Graeco-Roman
edifice was laid by Maharaja Chamarajendra
Wodeyar in April, 1884.The elevation is
dominated by a projecting frontage of
Corinthian grand-columns, in four pairs,
topped off with a heavy entablature of
multiple mouldings and a pediment containing
an intricately carved motif. Roman arched
windows with pilasters, louvered window
shutters and sun-rise glazing, adorn the
façade of a double-height hall with
balconies on either side. Cast-iron parapets
vary the lines on the sides |
