3 JAN 2012, NEW DELHI LODI TOMBS




In New Delhi I stayed at the delightful Lutyens Bungalow one of the buildings from the early twentieth century work on the new capital. It is like a family home with a pleasant garden. Within a few minutes walk are the superb Lodi tombs from 1440 set within the very green Lodi Gardens. The gardens are filled with early morning and evening walkers and joggers including groups who have loud communal laughing sessions. The tombs are beautiful stone buildings with inlays of coloured tiles. I have often drawn these buildings and did so again on this trip.
