From 1526-1857, the Mughal Empire presided over an extended period
of peace, prosperity and unprecedented artistic achievement in the
Indian subcontinent. For more than a decade, the Aga Khan Historic
Cities Programme has been working to preserve and restore
historically significant sites to their original splendour. This
book takes a close look at a wide variety of such projects, such as
Bagh-e-Babur in Kabul; Humayun's tomb and garden in Delhi; and the
walled city of Lahore; and places them in the wider context of the
Empire's social, aesthetic and ethical mores. In addition, it
includes contemporary projects being developed around the world
that reflect aspects of Mughal and Islamic heritage. Filled with
stunning colour photography, this book offers a detailed study of
the myriad achievements of the Mughal world and their lasting
effects throughout the globe. This book also includes texts written
by leading specialists on the subject as well as those who were
actually in charge of the restoration projects.
