Q & A with Chanchal Dadlani, a finalist for the Morey Book Award

The following is a guest post from the Office of the Dean of the College:

Chanchal Dadlani’s book, From Stone to Paper: Architecture as History in the Late Mughal Empire, looks at the cross section of architecture and history in the 18th Century, an overlooked period of time of the Mughal Empire. It has recently been selected as one of four finalists for the 2020 Charles Rufus Morey Book Award by the College Art Association, with the winner selected later this month.

Dadlani recently spoke with the Dean’s Office about the origins of the book and being selected as a Morey Award finalist.
