Monuments anciens et modernes de l'Hindoustan décrits sous le double rapport archeologique et pittoresque: et précédés d'une notice géographique, d'une notice historique, et d'un discours sur la religion, la législation et les moeurs des Hindous

Langlès, Louis Mathieu · 1821 · 40 pictures

Langlès's 1821 French survey of Indian monuments, compiled for antiquarian and picturesque readers and produced by Heidelberg University Library's digitised collection, presents architecture and temple sites of Hindustan. The plates are engraved views of buildings in elevation and perspective, with some figure and ornament scenes, offering designers strong examples of architectural draughtsmanship, ornamental stone carving, and period topographic composition.
