'Indian domestic and religious architecture continued in a most flourishing condition up till the advent of the English and the invasion of Indian life by modern notions from Europe. In British India the native arts and crafts dwindled, owing to the craze for the new things of the West, and architecture also similarly suffered. India, it looked, was going to become a province of Europe in matters of architecture and art.'
