"If there is paradise on earth, it is here, it is here, it is here."
Explanation:
- The image was created through the fusion of various elements of Mughal Architecture in a strikingly harmonious combination.
- Such images needed careful planning. This fusion was placed inside the huge courtyard and a series of pietra-dura inlays were built behind the emperor's throne portraying Orhpeus with a Lute and a popular god.
