No. VIII.

THE ENTRANCE TO THE MAUSOLEUMS IN SULTAUN KHUSERO'S GARDEN, NEAR ALLAHABAD.

This gate is the principal entrance to the garden in which Sultaun Khusero, his mother the Ranee, and his brother Sultaun Purveiz, are interred. Though a massy structure, it has by no means a heavy effect; and though it formerly may have appeared with more splendour, having been painted with different colours, that surface is fortunately now nearly washed off. The upper part towards the garden is much decayed.
