Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Transparent enclosure with piers.
Notre Dame des Anges (Our Lady of Angels), built in 1855, is a stunning example of Greco-Roman architecture. Unlike traditional Indian temples with a Shikhara or Islamic Minarets, this church features a unique transparent enclosure supported by masonry piers. Its facade is known for using a mixture of limestone and egg whites to achieve a smooth, marble-like finish, reflecting French colonial influence.
