Shown in the photo is the French-Gothic style of architecture.

This style of architecture was very popular between the 12th and 16th centuries. During this time period, many European countries were vying for power outside of Europe. In the 1600’s, India was under French European colonial rule where this style of architecture was introduced to the country.
