Which outcome arises within Mughal pietra dura mosaics due to differential thermal expansion?

A)Inlay detachment from substrate occurs
B)Uniform color changes across inlays
C)Increased light refraction within stones
D)Accelerated algal growth on surfaces

💡 Explanation

In Mughal pietra dura, varying materials have different thermal expansion. Differential Thermal Expansion causes stress at the interface because the inlay material expands at a different rate than the substrate; therefore, the inlays detach, rather than the color simply changing uniformly.
