Description: | Plate 18 from the third set of Thomas and William Daniell's 'Oriental Scenery.' This step-well or baoli, near the funerary complex in Delhi of Shaikh Nizam al-Din Aulia (1236-1325), is believed to have been built by the followers of the Saint. It is surrounded by a mosque and some tombs. The Daniells saw small boys dive into the water to retrieve coins, as they still do. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Publisher: | Daniell, Thomas | Rights holder: | British Library | Subjects: | Shrines | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Daniell, Thomas (1749-1840) | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
