Brahmi temple in Udaipur is a 1874 oil by Vasily Vereshchagin, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Armenia.
In the painting, a temple stands against a clear blue sky. The temple is made of light-colored stone and has a tall spire and several smaller domes. A white cloth hangs from the central dome. In the foreground, a low stone wall with a decorative top edge runs across the image. Behind the wall, a few people are visible, and some green plants grow. The temple appears to be in a state of disrepair, with some of its stone blocks missing or damaged. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and tranquility, with the clear blue sky and the peaceful surroundings of the temple. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting.
