Photograph of Jamma Masjid, Delhi. The mosque has a central gateway with a deep recess and a covered walkway with arches to either side. There are three large onion-shaped domes and a minaret is visible to the left. There is a large courtyard in the foreground where two people are standing together.
This is one of a series of photographs from a published volume documenting the tour the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, made of India in 1875-76. This mosque is the largest in India.
