From an early 1900's article:
"I have seen the Taj again; this time at noon. Under the vertical sun the melancholy phantom has vanished, the sweet sadness of the mausoleum has gone. The great marble table on which it stands is blinding. The light, reflected back and forth from the immense surfaces of white marble, is increased a hundred-fold in intensity, and some of the sides are like burning plaques."
I would guess the blackish look is due to one or more the following:
- Acid Rain
- Cars
- Pollutants from industry in India and China
- The stone from it is built of is very porous - therefore, it requires cleaning --- pollutants of today, did not exist when it was built
