ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS OF MUGHAL ARCHITECTURE
We, THE HERITAGE, have been working on the monuments of Agra, Fatehpur Sikri, Taj Mahal, Delhi, Ajmer, and other historical sites in India AND Lahore in Pakistan, for nearly three decades. Of these, the Agra Fort and the Taj Mahal at Agra; Buildings of Fatehpur Sikri; and the Tomb of Humayun, Qutb Minar and Red Fort at Delhi are UNESCO World Heritage Sites in India.
We have Architectural Sketches, Diagrams and Drawings (plans, sections and elevations) of these monuments in our collection, which belongs, originally, to Professor R Nath who had been working in this field for nearly half a century and who has authored 65 Books and 190 Research Papers on MUGHAL ARCHITECTURE. It is an exclusive collection.
These drawings illustrate such architectural forms and features as lay-out and plan; arches, alcoves, chhajjas, jharokhas and jalis used on the façade; domes, towers, minars, turrets, pinnacles and chhatris on the superstructure; ceilings; and motifs and designs of architectural ornamentation.
They illustrate unique features. For example, a wide variety of trabeated arches, pendentives and flat stone ceilings, evolved in this region, are wonderful feats of building techniques. These drawings are basic tool for the study and research in this discipline and these medieval engineering skills can also be of immense use in modern architecture.
In order to promote higher study and research in Mughal Architecture, we have built up, gradually, a corpus of nearly 1000 Architectural Drawings of plans, sections and elevations of Mughal Monuments of Agra – Fatehpur Sikri, Delhi, Lahore, Ajmer, Bari, Gwalior, Panipat and other sites.
