At the height of the Mughal power, the imperial studios hummed with the activity of hundreds of papermakers, calligraphers, painters and bookbinders, all producing books for the royal libraries. Many manuscripts were illustrated with exquisite miniature paintings, in which the Mughals took special delight. Today these books and paintings, treasured by museums around the world, offer us unique perspectives into the Mughal period.
