Description: | Plate eight in 'Picturesque Scenery in the Kingdom of Mysore' by James Hunter. This aquatint is based on a picture by Hunter of the Cypress Garden on the outskirts of Bangalore in the late Eighteenth Century. This garden was established during the rule of Haider Ali Khan of Mysore (c.1722 - 1782), and was enlarged upon by his eldest son, Tipu Sultan (1753 -1799). Today, the Lalbagh Gardens are regarded as a leading centre for research and development across the entire state. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Publisher: | Orme, Edward | Rights holder: | British Library | Subjects: | Landscapes | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Hunter, James (d. 1792) | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
