Group of sculptures in the public garden at Narsimhapur. Photographer: Cousens, Henry
- Scope & Content:
-
Captioned and numbered in the negative. General view of sculptures arranged amongst potted plants. Cousens, Central Provinces list, p. 43: 'In the public garden...there are some very interesting sculptures which were collected by Colonel Bloomfield from various parts of the district.
