This is study of such colour schemes and modes as Glazed-tiling, Stucco and mural Painting, and stone Inlay and Mosaic (including Glass Mosaic) used for architectural decoration in Mughal buildings from Akbar to Shah Jehan (1556-1658), with a thorough historical background. It traces the origin of each art to the remotest antiquity and interprets the hitherto obscure techniques and styles with a view to identify the sources of inspiration and to define the colourfulness of Mughal Architecture.<\/p>\n
