Genre: Portrait Photography
Portrait (slightly distant) of the tow men posed on the verandah of their quarters at Kashgar. Ferdinand Stoliczka (?-1874) joined the Geological Survey of India in 1862; he was selected to join Forsyth's mission as geologist and composed a number of papers on the geology of the route to Kashgar. He died from over-exertion and exposure at Boolak-i-Moorghai, 12 marches from Leh, on 9 June 1874. John Biddulph (b. 1840), ADC to the Viceroy Lord Northbrook at this period, and later Resident at Baroda (1893), wrote a number of sections in Forsyth's published account of the mission.
