Seringapatam Fort, showing the breach made in the walls before it was stormed on 4 May 1790. Photographer: Dixon, Henry
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Landscape Photography
View from the river looking towards the walls of the fort. The point of the breach, in the left background, is marked with a cross on the print. Print in poor condition, with some tears and staining from glue. Unsigned, but probably by Henry Dixon: compare Photo 1000 (2271a) which is an almost identical view, which appears to have been taken on the same occasion and is credited to Dixon.
[Albumen print, in poor condition with glue staining, 244x150mm].
