Screen

This pierced marble screen was made within the Mughal empire and may be dated to the reign of Shah Jahan (r. 1628-58). Its design and the carving of the flowers are both closely similar to a screen still in place in the Taj Mahal, built for Shah Jahan's wife Mumtaz Mahal after her death in 1631.
