Indian Mughal Kumar Sandstone Panel, 16th to 18th century, Northern India. This is an excellent example of the architectural work of northern Mughal India done in the distinct red with white speckled Kumar sandstone typical of the Delhi-Mathura regions. This is the period of sublime Islamic architecture like the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort near New Delhi. The piece exhibits Koranic calligraphy carved in deep relief into the stone. A piece with a wonderful presence from an exotic time. H. 21 W. 15 1/4 D. 2 1/4 (53.3 cm x 38.8 cm x 5.7 cm)..
