Gate of the Hoosseinabad Bazar, Lucknow

Louis-Théophile Marie Rousselet

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned black and white photograph of a large ornate gate with two large pointed arches in the center and one on each side. The gate has a symmetrical design with a row of windows and decorative trim along the top. A dome sits atop the center of the gate. The gate appears to lead to an open area with a road. On either side of the road are small structures that appear to be market stalls or shops with sloping roofs. People are sitting or standing around the market stalls. In the background, there are more buildings with domes and spires. The sky above is clear. The image is mounted on a beige background with text below it that reads "PORTE DU BAZAR DE HOUSSEINABAD | GATE OF THE HOOSSEINABAD BAZAR" and "Lucknow".
