An original image that takes its structure from Mughal Garden (Style, 16th–18th century) and its accent from Mughal Miniature (Style, 16th–19th centuries). Structural cues: Stepped water channels; White marble against water; Symmetrical avenues; Tomb and garden unified. Accent cues, used sparingly: Precise brushwork; Gold and opaque watercolor; Ornamental borders; Multiple viewpoints. Composition: Run the fourfold axis through the building center and mirror the facade. Type and lettering: Align the building's inscription with the garden axis so both read as one. Let one material quality come from the second style: Opaque watercolor and gold in fine layered strokes on burnished paper.. Mood: Luxury, Calm, Exhilaration, Intimacy. Color: build on #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615 with a single accent drawn from #ead7a7, #7a9a72, #a54739. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Mughal Garden: The pool gets widened to hold the reflection until the fourfold axis and the paired avenues can no longer be read and the form comes apart.
# - Mughal Miniature: Treat Mughal, Deccan, Rajasthani and Pahari as separate schools rather than one Indian miniature tradition. Drawing for a zoomed view packs in line density that becomes a dark mass at actual size.
