DESCRIPTION
Harmony in stone and song . In Pakistan's Shalimar Gardens, built at Lahore by Shah Jahan about 1640.Tahira Sayyad accompanies herself on a sister in a ghazal, the classical Persian love lyric adored by the Moghuls. Here is the epitome of the Moghul passion for gardens fountain-stirred water thumbing from terrace to terrace into pools arranged geometrically among flowers and fruit trees. Scalloped arches and white marble are both hallmarks of Shah Jahan's era.
This is stated on 'National Geographic The 1980s' .May 1983-August 1986 of this CD-ROM.

MUGHAL IMAGES
The Mughal Images immediately took a much greater interest in realistic portraiture than was typical of Persian miniatures. Animals and plants were the main subject of many miniatures for albums and were more realistically depicted. To upload your images click here.
