The Architecture of Memory

This striking black-and-white photograph captures a corridor of Jahangir Mahal in Orchha, where the play of light and shadow creates a rhythmic dance across the stone floor and walls. Intricately carved eaves and archways guide the eye through layered perspectives, leading toward a distant doorway framed in ornate detail. Above, domed chhatris rise subtly into view, offering a glimpse of the palace’s regal silhouette. The composition balances architectural precision with atmospheric depth, evoking a sense of historical stillness and grandeur.
