Façade of Dada Harir's Mosque, Asarwa, Ahmadabad. Photographer: Lyon, Edmund David
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
View from the south-east corner of the court, looking towards the iwan and flanking minarets. The photographs shows the south minaret before it was condemned as unsafe and demolished by the Public Works Department, c. 1875. India Museum no. 1499. Received from Captain Lyon 7 February 1871. Duplicate print at Photo 1001 (3256).
608. - Shows the mosque adjoining the well described in Photo 607. It is peculiar from the top of the minarets being quite plain so that at a distance they resemble the towers of a castle. It was built by the same person who built the well according to an inscription but whether man or woman seems doubtful.
