Futtypore Sikri—Two of the Marbled Screens in the Tomb of Sheik Selim Chisti

The image shows a sepia-toned photograph of two large, ornate windows with intricate latticework. The windows are set within a stone wall and have a pointed arch at the top. The latticework is made up of small, interlocking circles and geometric shapes. The windows are divided into sections by thin stone frames. The left window is smaller than the one on the right. A decorative stone pillar is between the windows. The wall appears to be made of stone or marble. The image appears to be taken in a historic or cultural setting, possibly a mosque or tomb. The photograph is credited to Samuel Bourne.
