Sadat Ali Shah's Mausoleum, first King of Oude, 1880 - 1889
Scope and Contents
281x225mm. Showing the entrance to the mausoleum, an archway surmounted by two lions and flanked by small domed gatehouses. The dome of the tomb can be seen in the distance. There appears to be some confusion in the title: this view is presumably taken from Neill Road and shows the tomb of Saadat Ali Khan (reigned 1798-1814). The first king of Oudh, Saadat Khan (reigned 1732-39) died and was buried at Delhi.
