Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The Taj Mahal, built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan (1592-1666 CE) as a mausoleum for his wife Mumtaz Mahal (1593-1631 CE), is considered exceptional in the history of world architecture.This book provides a deeper understanding of the Taj Mahal and its builder by examining its inscriptions within their architectural, historical and biographical contexts. The texts adorning the Taj Mahal comprise verses from twenty-two different chapters of the Quran but their meaning and significance escapes most non-Muslim visitors or those unable to read them.

This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
