Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah
Mughal imperial workshops · Agra, India · 1628
The Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah uses pale marble, fine inlay and delicate screens to create an unusually intimate Mughal mausoleum. Its low central building sits within a formal garden, with corner towers marking the main volume. The craftsmanship and material treatment offer a valuable comparison with the larger royal tombs of Agra and Delhi. Visiting: Entry is ticketed, with higher rates for foreign visitors.
