Ulwur. - The Motee Doongree Palace. Photographer: Impey, Eugene Clutterbuck
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
General view from the driveway of the building, built 1815-57 in a mixed Indian-European style and also known as the Vinai Vilas Palace. 'This palace is situated about two miles from the town of Ulwur, and is used as the residence of the Political Agent [ie Impey himself at this time]. Both stories have the advantage of broad double cornices, like those of the pavilions at Deeg. It is, however, so recent that it shows some traces of Italian design, which is fast obliterating the beauties of the Indian styles.' For a later view, see Photo 169/2(31).
