Islamic Architecture

the glory of the sultans
islamic architecture in india
by
yves porter, gerard degeorge
is
a
beautiful book
on
muslim architecture
in india
-spanning eight centuries-
-seems an interesting read for those more erudite than i
but
will enjoy flipping through and looking at the pretty pictures-
sigh

*wonder if the architect of the metropolitan opera house
(lincoln center)
had
seen
the asar mahal in bijapur*
