Title:

Curzon Collection: Curzon's first year as Viceroy

Scope & Content:

Genre/Subject Matter:

The album contains informal snapshots and work by professional photographers, showing views of various interiors, viceregal functions and events, together with landscape views of: Bombay, Lucknow, Calcutta, Barakpur, Mashobra, Bhopal, Benares, Narkanda, Delhi, Gwalior, Brindaban, Agra, Fatehpur Sikri, Bhopal, Benares (Varanasi) and Assam. Group portraits of Naga and other hill tribes complete the album. A final, loose print is a view in Buenos Aires: it is unclear how this image is related to the rest of the album.
