About the Book
This volume showcases 54 important mosques spread across the Indian subcontinent, from Lahore in modern Pakistan to Gaur in modern West Bengal, and from Delhi in the north to Kayalpatnam and Bijapur in the south. It is a comprehensive and painstaking effort to examine the evolution and iconography of mosque architecture in the region.
Through detailed analysis, the book traces the historical development of mosque design, exploring the influences of various cultural and religious traditions that shaped Islamic architecture in India. It also delves into the symbolism and aesthetic elements that define mosque architecture, highlighting how these structures embody religious, cultural, and political contexts.
