Description

Pavilion in the fort of Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh. Coloured aquatint by Thomas Daniell, 1795.
Plate 8 from the first set of Thomas Daniell's 'Oriental Scenery.' The so-called Queen's pavilion, the Rani-ka-Mahal, part of Akbar's Fort at Allahabad, was built in 1583 as the Emperor's private retiring room. It consists of a baradari or pavilion with a central square block on a nine-fold plan, surrounded by a magnificent colonnade of double and quadruple pillars. The roofed terrace is surmounted by kiosks decorated with latticed screens, which have now disappeared, as has the original marble pavilion which crowned the roof terrace.
