INVESTIGATING THE MOSQUES DESIGNS AND PATTERNS IN STATE HARYANA, INDIA: A VISUAL ANALYSIS
Renu Kumari
Abstract:
Since their discovery, the architectural image of old Indian temples has fascinated historians. This may be owing to the mystic sensory experience that visitors get when they enter these buildings. Mysticism has been investigated by a wide variety of disciplines, including history, archaeology, art, anthropology, astrology, numerology, and even architecture. These disciplines have focused on either linked myths or textural tenets. Since the beginning of temples' existence till the present day, an enormous shift has taken place in the architectural language used for their construction. Since the late Middle Ages, this language has been decoded mostly in Sanskrit and has been realized with the authenticity that it deserves. It was during the colonial time when many scholarships began making efforts to translate and visually change architectural drawings in an effort to decipher the enigmas that underlie the language of architectural drawings
