-
Genre: Architectural Photography
General view of shrine, with pilgrims in front: 'On the second day we rode off west [from Darreh Gaz] to inspect various ancient sites...Leaving the Governor to examine his fine crop of cotton, we rode westwards for another six miles to a second ruined site, termed Shad Mina; close by was a shrine to Hazrat Sultan (His Highness the Sultan). It was erected by Al-Muayyid, the Ainadar or 'Mirror-bearer' of Sultan Sanjar, the last great Suljuk, in honour of Imam Muwaffak Shafai who was in the camp of Al-Muayyid, and was killed at the siege of Shahristan. At the time of our visit we were able to photograph a group of pilgrims outside the sacred edifice.'
