Ancient Summer Residence of the Mughal Emperor... by KarmaSong
Open full image in new tabDescription
This is a 30-something- hour's work, building this non-historical monument,entirely out of Bryce terrains, except the pillars (made of primitives) and the golden lion at the top of it. (the city in the background is also made of terrains). I didn't know how to name this image, but came across a biography of Akbar the Great (1542-1605), considered the greatest of the Mughal emperors and known for his extreme tolerance to all religions. He gave respect not only to Muslim scholars, but also to Hindus, Christians, Parsis and Sikhs. Those who came to his court were given respect, and the Emperor heard their views, sometimes alone, sometimes in the Ibadatkhana (Hall of Worship), where people of all religions assembled and discussed their views in a tolerant spirit.
Ceci est le fruit d'un travail d'une trentaine d'heures à bâtir ce monument qui n'a rien d'historique, entièrement à partir de terrains, sauf les piliers et le lion d'or à son sommet. (la ville est aussi faite à partir de terrains). Je ne savais pas comment nommer cette image, mais suis tombé par hasard sur une biographie d'Akbar le Grand, considéré comme le plus grand empereur Mogol et connu pour sa grande tolérance vis-à-vis des religions. Non seulement respectait-il les érudits musulmans, mais aussi ceux des Hindous, des Chrétiens, des Perses et des Sikhs. Ceux qui fréquentaient sa cour avaient droit au respect et l'Empereur écoutait leurs points de vue, parfois seul, parfois dans la salle de l'adoration où les représentants de toutes les religions se rassemblaient et débattaient de leurs opinions dans un esprit de tolérance.

Impressive undertaking, Jean-Luc. Well worth all of the time you put into it. I especially like the surrounding water elements and mists. The temple design is very original in its style.

Mon grand ami KarmaSong, roi des terrains sous Bryce, nous épate encore une fois avec son savoir-faire et sa créativité ! Quelle beauté et une belle dédicace à cet empereur qui mériterait d'être mieux connu ! Il nous donne une belle leçon de tolérance ! Une image parfaite Jean-Luc, mais est-ce étonnant de ta part ;-) Bisous et bon WE Virginie
