Description
As a student of Muslim Art and Architecture, it has always been my desire to present diverse cultural manifestations of Islam in a popular and irrational form for the average reader. To do this I have had to select and coordinate those elements which would increase this pleasure in works of Muslim Architecture, and to stimulate him to further research in this line. This was possible only when along with the architectural and chronological sequence, the historical and pictorial sequence was introduced, historical sequence elucidates the cause and effect of every new architectural innovation and the pictorial sequence presents in a visual form, its complete realisation. Thus I hope that this book will tend to promote the understanding and appreciation of Muslim Architecture among the general public. That understanding and appreciation which is not the judgment of enthusiasm but of sharp scrutiny and investigation.
