The City of Lahore. Another View Taken from Huzeer Khan's House

Samuel Bourne

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of a cityscape. The city has many buildings, some with flat roofs and others with domed roofs. In the foreground, a large building with two smaller towers and a large central dome is visible. To the right, a tall tower with a large dome on top and ornate designs on its sides stands. The buildings are densely packed, with many windows and archways visible. In the background, more buildings and trees are seen, stretching to the horizon. The sky above is clear and light-colored. The photograph is taken from a high vantage point, likely from Huzeer Khan's House. The image shows a city, Lahore, taken by Samuel Bourne.
