Mughal wall art print of the charitable world Shah Jahan built alongside the Taj Mahal: free hospitals, rest houses and roadside inns serving travellers and the poor while the marble monument rose for an empress. Painted in soft watercolour with fine ink detail and no facial features, the arcades dissolving into white space at the edges. A warm, generous piece for a hallway, living room, clinic or study.
Shah Jahan is remembered almost entirely for the Taj Mahal. He also funded free hospitals in Agra and Delhi, rest houses along the major roads and daily distributions of food and medicine. A ruler can build the most beautiful building in the world and the systems that keep poor people alive. Only one gets on the postcards.
A thoughtful gift for a doctor, a traveller or anyone with a love of Mughal India. Part of the Riwayah Studio Islamic History collection: Mughal Empire poster, Agra wall art, Indian heritage print, Islamic architecture art, South Asian history wall decor.
Country of origin: designed in the United Kingdom and printed to order in your own region, so US orders are printed and shipped within the US with no customs charges or import duty. This is an original paper art print.
Printed on premium 200 gsm matte paper with a smooth, uncoated finish that holds deep colour without glare. The paper is FSC certified and archival quality, so the artwork will not yellow over time.
Poster only: the print on its own, rolled and shipped in a protective tube, ready for your own frame or hanger. The most affordable option if you already have framing in mind.
Poster with wooden hanger: a black pine hanger with a matching leather cord. Magnetic strips grip the top and bottom of the print without damaging it, so fitting takes seconds and the print can be swapped or framed later. A good choice for renters or anyone who likes to restyle.
Framed print: a slim black aluminium frame, around 1 cm wide, with a shatterproof acrylic front and hanging kit included. The print and frame arrive together in one box, with simple fitting by hand in a couple of minutes.
Every piece is an original Riwayah Studio design, created in the United Kingdom and printed to order at our production partner's nearest facility. Orders placed in the US are printed in the US, and UK and EU orders are printed in Europe. Free delivery is included.
