India Office Series Duplicates: Selected photographs taken for the Archaeological Survey of India (India Office Series). Photographers: David Harold Day Sykes, Edmund David Lyon, James Burgess, Henry Cousens, Henry Dixon, Robert Gill, J. Johnson, Joseph Daviditch Melik Beglar, James Innes Minchin.
- Scope & Content:
-
A collection of 53 prints of architectural and archaeological subjects mounted on thick card, duplicates of material in the original Archaeological Survey collection, India Office Series (Photo 1000), printed probably in the early 1900s. The prints are generally in good condition and uncaptioned, although the majority have pencilled reference numbers which accord with the India Office series numbers. Subjects include rock-cut cave temples (mostly at Elephanta and Ellora) and Islamic architecture at Bijapur and Ahmadabad.
