Mughal India – Splendours of the Peacock Throne

The Mughal Empire dominated India for three centuries. Under enlightened patrons such as Akbar the Great in the 16th century and Shah Jahan in the 17th century, this vast Muslim empire, which ranged from Kashmir and Afghanistan to the Deccan at its height, produced paintings and architecture of exceptional quality, such as the Taj Mahal. Using architectural drawings, miniatures, paintings and memoirs written by the rulers themselves, this book reveals the achievements of this great empire.
