The correct option is A Jaunpur

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Pylons built on the facade to accentuate entrances etc. are a common feature.
Arches are of the 'depressed four centered' or 'Tudor' variety with 'Fleur-de-Lys' fringes.
The builders were never certain of the curves and contours of the arches, which wavered weakly in the larger examples.
