EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled 'Taj Mahal, - Agra' by Samuel Prout, dates back to 1834. The image offers a breathtaking view of the iconic Taj Mahal from the banks of the River Yamuna in Agra, India. Commissioned by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, the mausoleum is a masterpiece of Mughal architecture and is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The print showcases the exterior of the monument in all its grandeur, with the white marble structure standing proudly against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. The intricate designs and calligraphy adorning the walls are visible, reflecting the rich Islamic and Mughal artistic heritage. The tranquil waters of the river add to the serene atmosphere, making it a popular tourist attraction even in the 19th century. The print was published as part of 'Views in India, China and on the Shores of the Red Sea, Vol. I' by Fisher, Son & Co. in London in 1835. The image was likely captured by Commander Robert Elliot, who was known for his extensive travels and explorations. The print provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the history and culture of India during the Mughal Empire. The Taj Mahal continues to be a source of inspiration and fascination for people around the world, and this print is a testament to its enduring beauty and significance.
