Artwork description

La reproducción está íntegramente realizada en madera balsa, trabajada a mano hasta en sus más ínfimos detalles.
Medidas en cms: Ancho 0,33 x Largo 0,33 x Altura 0,29
El príncipe Shah Jahan, heredero del Gran Imperio Mongol, de 20 años, conoció a Mumtaz Mahal, de quien se enamoró perdidamente. La princesa persa-musulmana, de 19 años, segunda esposa, fue la favorita del emperador.
Murió luego de dar a luz a su décimo cuarto hijo.
Antes de morir pidió a su esposo que cumpliera cuatro promesas:
Construir su tumba; que se casara otra vez; que fuera bueno con sus hijos; y que visitara su tumba cada año, en el aniversario de su muerte.
La construcción del mausoleo insumió 22 años (1631-1653).

Artist information

Julio Santos has managed to turn a hobby of artisans (the development of models and miniatures using balsa wood), in an artistic way to express the impressions that cause architectural works that inspire.

The quality of detail, symmetry and even the rhythm, with all works of these miniatures are a delight to see and admire.

The author of this work does not have any technical training, but obviously the natural observation and sense of proportion makes replicas look real....
