| Description |
English: The Indian Mutiny 1857-1859 British soldiers on the roof of the Alumbagh, a large walled enclosure situated on the outskirts of Lucknow near the Cawnpore Road. It contained a palace, mosque and gardens. During the Mutiny, it fell briefly under the control of the Indian mutineers. When British forces under the command of Havelock and Outram retook the Alumbagh on 23 September 1857, they continued to fortify it and use it in connection with military operations associated with the Relief of Lucknow. In November 1857, a force of c 5000 men was assembled there. This photograph was taken shortly before the final assault on Lucknow in March 1858. |

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  |
