Love the photo of the Jama Masjid! Would love to do part of this for me Durbar Display!

Dave

 

[Ana Donzino]

I agree, Dave.
I also love Connaught's face looking at Curzon during the speech. And the Balusch Chiefs going around the Jumma. I've always wanted to make them, specially the ones dressed in white with long beards. Some day

That would be cool Ana!

Of course we need a nice group of Mutiny Veterans first...

 

[Ana Donzino]

Yes, Dave, the Mutiny Veterans will go first ...

One of my favourites, The Sphere from 1903, covering the Durbar. there's so much information in each page that I had to separate text and pictures so the files were not to large to post.
