View of the Tomb of Akbar the Great at Sikandra, near Agra. The entrance features a pointed arch doorway set in an iwan. The façade of the entrance is decorated with intricate mosaics featuring geometric patterns. A man stands beside the open door at the entrance with his arms at his sides, while another man stands in the open square in front of the entrance with his hands on his hips and looks towards the building. Trees line the square on both sides.
