Resumo

View reproduced in Henry Cousens, Bijapur and its architectural remains (A.S.I., Imperial series, vol. XXXVII, Bombay, 1916), pl. cviii (a), and described p. 116: 'Perched upon a lofty bastion of the citadel walls…it is a very plain building, with little about it of interest, save the remains of some wall painting within…It is, wiothout doubt, a late building, To make the old bastion stouter and stronger to carry the mosque, it was further encased within an extra thickness of arched masonry; while a firm foundation was obtained upon the top by laying great heavy cross beams of wood under the foundations of the building.'. Photographer: Cousens, Henry.
