Mausoleum of Sultan Purveiz, near Allahabad.
No. XXII. MAUSOLEUM OF SULTAN PURVEIZ, NEAR ALLAHABAD.
The remains of Sultan Purveiz, the son of the Emperor Jehangire, were here deposited about the year 1626. The simplicity of the general design of this Mausoleum, with its judicious and well-executed decorations, rank it among the most correct examples of Indian architecture. By time and neglect, however, this building is much impaired. The dome was originally covered with glazed tiles, so formed and disposed, as to produce a very rich effect, and of which there are many beautiful examples still remaining at Agra and Delhi.
This Mausoleum is in the same garden, near to that of his brother Sultan Chusero.
