This volume provides a comprehensive architectural study of Faridkot, one of the Sikh states in the Malwa region of Punjab, established in the later half of the eighteenth century. It examines a wide array of structures including forts, palaces, havelis, administrative buildings, educational institutions, hospitals, and bazaars, highlighting their historical, cultural, and aesthetic significance.
Richly illustrated and meticulously researched, the book analyzes architectural styles, construction techniques, spatial organization, and decorative elements, offering insights into the evolution of Sikh architecture in Faridkot. It situates these buildings within the broader socio-political and cultural context of the region, making it an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and enthusiasts of Indian architecture and heritage.
