Hooseinabad, 1880 - 1889
Scope and Contents
275 x 208 mm. View from the south-west corner of the Husainabad lmambara beside the mausoleum looking north-east across the garden and tank towards the east copy of the Taj Mahal. At the left of the print is the entrance to the enclosure. On the skyline can be seen the Sat Khanda or seven storeyed tower. This was commenced at the same time as the Husainabad lmambara, but only four storeys had been completed at the time of Muhammad Ali Shah's death and the tower remained in this unfinished state.
