Description
English: Plate 24. The Mosque Picket.

This mosque is just outside the Allum Bagh, and formed our extreme advanced post in the direction of the city. Its size and prominent position made it an easy mark for the enemy’s shot, from which, however, it did not suffer materially. It is a handsome edifice, and as such I have transferred it to paper; but in other respects it was not an object of much interest.

From Drawings Made during the Siege, by Clifford Henry Mecham, Lieutenant Madras Army, with descriptive notices by George Couper, esq. late secretary to the Chief Commissioner of Oude. First edition, tinted lithographed title with vignette, 27 views on 17 tinted lithographed plates, folio, Day & Son, published 1 Oct 1858.
