The temple was the subject of a publication by Françoise L'Hernault in 1987, which has since been out of print: F. L'Hernault, with the collaboration of P.R. Srinivasan and of Jacques Dumarçay, "Darasuram. Epigraphical Study. Étude architecturale. Étude iconographique", Paris, École française d'Extrême-Orient, 2 volumes. The setting up of a data base on Darasuram was initiated by Françoise L'Hernault, and interrupted by her death in 1999. The present CD-Rom is the final result. It uses the documentation on Darasuram collected together in the photographic archives of Pondicherry (black and white photographs), and adds another photographic project carried out on the site in February 2006 (colour photographs), which considerably enriches the one published in 1987. The photographic documentation (2050 photos) spans fifty years (1956-2006), rendering modifications, deteriorations and renovations of the monuments observable. Isolated statues belonging to the site are also presented. These have been twice regrouped, the first time in 1951, on the occasion of the opening of the Art Gallery of Tanjavur where the most beautiful pieces were collected together and shown, and the second during the 1970s, at the time of the renovation of the temple by the Archaeological Survey of India, when other sculptures were stored in a maṇḍapa of the Śiva temple. The CD-Rom documents mainly the Airāvateśvara and Ammaṉ temples, but photographs were also taken in other temples of Darasuram. Also included in the CD-Rom are plans and drawings from the 1987 book. Each image is accompanied by a note as to : identification, location, description and various other information, and a search engine gives access to images corresponding to criteria defined by the user.
