I’Timad-ud-Daulah Parchin Kari

A painting of the glorious pietra dura (stone inlay) work in marble with semiprecious stones, as seen on the tomb of I’Timad-ud-Daulah. The underlying grid of the construction lines for this geometric pattern is deliberately not erased, paying homage to the hard work that goes behind creating these beautiful patterns.


Watercolor on handmade khadi pattern.

Dimensions: 11” x 16”
