PROF. R. NATH

 

Pp.88, Figures 3

This is a study of the Architecture and Site of the controversial Ayodhya Mosque, dealing with its epigraphs, and also with other mosques which bear his name, in order to make an assessment of its style. Did Babur really commission it, or his name has been associated with it a little erroneously ?
