Description:
This remarkable book was conceived by H. H. Cole, the then Superintendent of the Archaeological Survey of India. The project was initiated in Vrindavan, where two surveyors, Thakoor Dass and Habeebulah, meticulously took measurements of temples and buildings, assisting Cole in producing detailed pencil sketches. Upon returning to England in 1869, these sketches were further refined and reproduced through photo-lithography. The book documents Cole's visits to Vrindavan, Deeg, Goverdhan, and Fatehpur Sikri, where the team carefully selected viewpoints for capturing the architectural beauty of the structures. This work illustrates the distinctive Mixed Hindu-Mahomedan style of Upper India, a product of unique historical circumstances. Through photographs and plans, the book provides a comprehensive look at the architectural evolution and design of this fascinating region.
