Description: | Plan of the mosque at Isanpur, near Ahmadabad from James Burgess' 'Original Drawings [of] Muhammadan Architecture of Ahmadabad.' Isanapur, is located on the west bank of the Sabarmati River, north-west of Ahmadabad near the mosque of Bibi Achut Kuki. In 1460, Sultan Mahmud Begada (r.1459-1511) dedicated a mosque and a tomb in memory of Sayyad Usman (d.1458), a son of the saint Qutb-al-Qutab Burhanu'd-din of Batwa. The mosque is the first example in Ahmadabad where the minarets have been relocated on the fa��ade from the middle section to the ends. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Burgess, James (1832-1916) | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
