Explanation:
This paper addresses the results of mineralogical and physico-chemical investigation of 16th century Mughal plaster of Bibi Ka Maqbara, the Taj of Deccan. The study investigated micro-morphological structure of various components of the plaster for the great to provide a basis for future restoration. The investigation on particle size distribution of aggregates in the plaster was carried and the result correlated to the strength of the plaster. Sieve/petrological analysis indicate the addition of creamy white zeolites (also detected by Raman spectrum) along with crushed amygdaloidal basalt of different grain sizes as aggregate in the plaster. The component material of the plaster and its purity has been studied through thermal analysis. The outer plaster layer was characterized for addition of hygroscopic organic additive with active carbonyl group by FTIR spectroscopy. The SEM images show salt crystallization in the pores as one of the reason for failure of plaster at some location, probably due to recent conservation with cement mortars/plaster of paris.
Answer:
Explanation: Mughal Architecture is the type of Indo-Islamic architecture developed by the Mughals in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries throughout the ever-changing extent of their empire in South Asia. It developed the styles of earlier Muslim dynasties in India as an amalgam of Islamic, Persian, Turkish and Indian architecture. Mughal buildings have a uniform pattern of structure and character, including large bulbous domes, slender minarets at the corners, massive halls, large vaulted gateways, and delicate ornamentation. Examples of the style can be found in modern-day India, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan.
The Mughal dynasty was established after the victory of Babur at Panipat in 1526. During his five-year reign, Babur took considerable interest in erecting buildings, though few have survived. His grandson Akbar built widely, and the style developed vigorously during his reign. Among his accomplishments were Agra Fort, the fort-city of Fatehpur Sikri, and the Buland Darwaza. Akbar's son Jahangir commissioned the Shalimar Gardens in Kashmir.
Mughal architecture reached its zenith during the reign of Shah Jahan, who constructed Taj Mahal, the Jama Masjid, the Shalimar Gardens of Lahore, the Wazir Khan Mosque, and who renovated the Lahore Fort. The last of the great Mughal architects was Aurangzeb, who built the Badshahi Mosque.
