About this work

This drawing shows a grand building with tall arches and domed towers. The walls are light pink and white, with some sections decorated in blue and red patterns. The structure sits on a flat base, and the whole scene is framed by a pink border with swirling designs. The artist focused on clean lines and soft colors, making the building look peaceful. The text at the bottom reads *"Tomb of the Emperor Akbar, at Sikandra, near Agra."* Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
