Correct Answer: Shah Jahan


Solution : The correct option is Shah Jahan.

The art of decoration known as Pietra dura became particularly popular during the reign of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan (who reigned from 1628 to 1658). Pietra dura is a form of inlay technique in which intricately cut and polished semi-precious stones are set into marble to create decorative designs. This art form reached its zenith under the patronage of Shah Jahan, who was known for his love of fine arts and exquisite craftsmanship.
