THE COMPLETE TAJ MAHAL

TRAMA

The Taj Mahal is the unchallenged masterpiece of Mughal art and one of the most famous buildings in the world. Yet until now, there has been no full analysis of its architecture and meaning. Ebba Koch, the only scholar who has been permitted to take measurements of the complex, provides the first detailed documentation ever published on every building in the vast complex. She leads the reader on a walk through the entire complex of the Taj Mahal, with an explanation of each building, revealing not only the white marble mausoleum but the mosque and guest house that flank it, the garden across which it is seen, the great gate, the quarters of the tomb attendants, subsidiary tombs, and the now almost completely lost bazaar and caravanserai complex.
