Tomb of Itmad-ad-Daulah at Agra

Tliis mausoleum of exquisite white nurble is one of the finest buildings in Agra. It is the burial-place of Ghjyas Beg, father of the empress A'ur Jahan and her brother, Asaf Khan, of Jahangir's court. The archi- tectural lines of the structure, with its four graceful turrets at the cor- ners and a raised parilion in the centre, with its delicate latticework, can-ed tracery, and inlaid mosaics, blend into charming harmony with the surroundings amid which the building stands
