Painting at Itmad-Ud-Daulah’s Tomb, Agra

Posted on March 16, 2009
Painting on the Walls of Itmad-Ud-Daulah’s Tomb, Agra

Came back from Agra yesterday night. At my sister’s place today so can’t load pictures from my SLR here. I am quite excited about the pictures, after all I managed to be around Taj Mahal at sunset twice.

I had read about Itmad-Ud-Daulah’s Tomb at Indiamike. This time we landed up there and it is a beautiful monument. I just can’t wait to see the pictures from the bigger camera. We could not manage Fateh Pur Sikri though, next time maybe.

    Oh that’s lovely! What is it painted on? I can’t remember reading about this monument before but all of a sudden it seems to be showing up on 2-3 blogs.

    I agree Hobo.Sunita, this is painted on the walls. The monument is beautiful and less crowded.

    I wonder if that’s a painting or inlay work.

    Now Sidhu, I guess you are accurate, it is inlay work.
