Description
English: Plate 27, Moosah Bagh


This site was originally laid out as a garden by Nawab Asaf-ud-daulah, who transferred the capital of Avadh from Faizabad to Lucknow in 1775. His successor was Saadat Ali Khan (1798-1814) who constructed a building in a corner of the garden. It was designed by the talented Frenchman Claude Martin, along the lines of an English country seat, and named Musa Bagh after the biblical Moses. During the revolt of 1857-58, the Musa Bagh saw continuous action. The Begum of Avadh made it her headquarters in March 1858, and it became the last position in the city held in force by the Indians. The Begum's 10-year-old son had been declared Nawab of Avadh by the rebels in July 1857. British troops under Outram and Campbell eventually captured Musa Bagh. The Begum escaped to Nepal where she was granted asylum.

London: Day & Son, Gate Street, Lincoln's Inns Fields. Lithographed title and 27 tinted lithographed views on 11 sheets, engraved plan at the end. Dedicated to Lieut. Gen. the Ho.

Licensing

[edit]
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1898, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
