RUINS, SOUTH SIDE OF OLD DELHI.

Artist: T. S. Boys - Engraved by: G. Hamilton

*Delhi.—"The remains of this once magnificent and populous city exhibit so desolate and melancholy a scene, that it has more the look of an assemblage of dilapidated mansions of the dead than the living; and it is at this time difficult to imagine it to have ever been any thing else than a vast and splendid cemetery."—Elliot.
