A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts an aerial view of the Taj Mahal. In the foreground, a rectangular building with three white domes casts a long shadow toward the right. Beyond, the central marble mausoleum sits on a square platform with four corner minarets. The buildings and platform cast deep shadows across the Yamuna River on the right. Dense trees and flat terrain fill the background.
