Tomb of the Emperor Shah Jehan

Shown is an 18.25 inch platter titled “Tomb of the Emperor Shah Jehan.” It was made by John Hall (& Sons) around 1825. The pattern is based on a print, “The Taj Mahal, Tomb of the Emperor Shah Jehan and his Queen” from the book “A Picturesque Tour along the Rivers Ganges and Jumna in India” by Charles Ramus Forrest, which was published in 1824.
