Playing with lights can create different horror effects on objects. A direct light or underexposure on a face can make a variety of distortions. Using silhouette can add illusions on shadows, it defies the real size and form of the source.
The history of this mausoleum lends a soul to its magnificence: a soul filled with love, loss and remorse.
If it had not been for love, the world would have been deprived of this magnificent building. An example of how deeply a man loved his wife, that even after she remained present only in the form of memory, he was sure that he would never leave him.
The man was the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, and his love was the Persian Princess Mumtaz Mahal.
He was 14 when he met Mumtaz and fell in love with her. Five years later, in 1612, they married.
