That was how Tim titled this picture, but it took me a while to figure out where the guard was ;-).
Built in 1548, Isa Khan’s garden-tomb precedes Humayun’s tomb by two decades and is the culmination of an architectural style used for royal tombs in Delhi during the Sayyid and Lodi dynasties from the early 15th to the early 16th centuries. It is the only surviving octagonal tomb enclosed with walls, mosque and gateway intact.
Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.
