The Mughals were an Indian Islamic dynasty which ruled most of northern India (including the area of present-day Pakistan) from the beginning of the sixteenth to the mid-eighteenth century. As patrons of architecture the Mughals commissioned some of the finest buildings known to the world. This exhibition of late 19th century black & white photography taken by various photographers shows well-known monuments in Delhi in a very different context and was curated especially for Archnet.
The collection is made available through the generosity of an individual who collected these images through auction and private sale.
