EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 1890s, showcases the grandeur of The Elephant Tower, a remarkable architectural marvel located in the historic city of Fatehpur Sikri in Uttar Pradesh, India. The Elephant Tower, also known as the Horseshoe Bakhtiari Tank and Elephant Pool, is one of the many intriguing structures that once adorned the imperial city of Fatehpur Sikri, which was the capital of the Mughal Empire under the reign of Emperor Akbar from 1571 to 1585. The Elephant Tower, as its name suggests, is believed to have been designed to resemble an elephant, with its curved walls and arches creating the illusion of the animal's body and tusks. The tower is situated near the Anup Talao or the Anup Sagar Lake, and it is said that the Emperor Akbar used to take a bath in the lake, which was fed by an underground spring. The photograph captures the Elephant Tower in its full glory, with the sun casting long shadows over its intricately carved walls. The tower's red sandstone walls, adorned with intricate carvings and inscriptions, stand out against the lush green surroundings, creating a breathtaking contrast. The tower's arches and domes are adorned with intricate floral and geometric patterns, reflecting the rich cultural heritage and artistic prowess of the Mughal Empire. The Elephant Tower is a testament to the architectural brilliance of the Mughal Empire and a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of India. This photograph not only captures the architectural beauty of the tower but also transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the grandeur and splendor of the imperial city of Fatehpur Sikri during the Mughal era.
