LL/50937
Unidentified photographer
1896, 27 August (or later)
Le harem apres le bombardment [The harem of the palace after the bombardment, Zanzibar]

Photographic print
Private collection of John Cloake
The Anglo-Zanzibar War lasted for 40 minutes on 27 August 1896 and is the shortest war in history.
 
This photograph is likely to be from Richard Mohun's portfolio and could be attributed to him but further information is required to be secure.
