Ancient railings around the Mahabodhi Temple, Bodh Gaya. Photographer: Garrick, Henry Baily Wade
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
Close view of railings, with sculptured discs. Credited to Beglar in T. Bloch, 'A list of the photographic negatives of Indian antiquities in the collection of the Indian Museum: with which is incorporated the list of similar negatives in the possession of the the India Office' (Calcutta, 1900), but probably photographed by Garrick during his visit of 1880-1. The railings are described in Alexander Cunningham and H. B. W. Garrick, 'Report of tours in North and South Bihar, in 1880-81' (A.S.I. vol. XVI, Calcutta, 1883), pp.134-135. In the preface, Cunningham specifically states: 'Mr Garrick next visited Buddha Gaya for the purpose of seeing the work in progress, and of photographing the sculptures and inscriptions which had been exhumed, as well as various scenes on the pillars of the old Buddhist railing.' (p. ix).
