EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the haunting beauty of a domed building in Mandu, a historic city located in the Madhya Pradesh Province of Central India. Dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries, Mandu was once the capital of the Malwa Sultanate and is renowned for its rich architectural heritage. This particular structure, with its grand dome and intricate stone carvings, is believed to be a tomb, a testament to the region's rich history and cultural significance. The square base of the building and the symmetrical arrangement of its arches add to its grandeur, while the surrounding greenery and the play of light and shadow create an ethereal atmosphere. The photograph, taken by Ralph Ponsonby Watts in the 1940s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when this magnificent edifice was a vibrant part of everyday life. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of India's architectural wonders and the importance of preserving them for future generations to appreciate.
