About this item

Content

The photograph shows Yadgar Thana, a fortified post, with walls and two square towers. The fort is situated in an arid landscape. In front of the walls are a number of figures, all of which appear to be men. Five or six of these are sitting or standing in a group by one of the towers. Another group on the left side of the picture includes five men on camel- and horseback. One of these men appears to be wearing Western-style dress. In the foreground is a watering hole and a pile of bricks, probably drying in the sun.

The photograph was probably taken by H A Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent, Indian Telegraph Department.
