Humayun’s tomb, New Delhi, unframed

Precursor to the Taj Mahal, the mausoleum of Mughal Emperor Humayun (A.D. 1508-1556) was commissioned by his first wife, Empress Bega Begum, in 1558. Construction began in 1565 and was completed in 1572.

The building was the first to use the unique combination of red sandstone and white marble and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.
