The Vijayanagara Empire, founded in 1336 CE in South India, witnessed remarkable development in art and architecture between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries. Its rulers patronised temples, sculpture, painting, music, literature, and other cultural activities. Vijayanagara art represented a synthesis of earlier South Indian traditions, particularly those of the Cholas, Pandyas, Hoysalas, and Chalukyas, while also developing distinctive features of its own. Temple architecture reached its greatest expression under the Vijayanagara rulers. The Virupaksha Temple at Hampi, originally an older shrine but greatly expanded under Vijayanagara patronage, became an important religious and architectural centre. The Vittala Temple is another outstanding example. ______ _______ _______ ___ ___ ___ ____ ____ ______ _____ _______ ________.
