This monochrome chromolithograph titled “Side View of the Gate – Agra” is part of the “Travel of India” series and depicts a lateral perspective of the Great Gate (Darwaza-i Rauza) leading to the Taj Mahal complex. Executed by Vincent Brooks Lith., the print captures the majestic Mughal gateway partially obscured by lush trees, with human figures adding a sense of scale and daily life. The detailed rendering emphasizes the architectural elegance of the gate, with its ornate archways, domed kiosks (chhatris), and intricate inlay work. The Gujarati script beneath the title further emphasizes the publication’s regional accessibility and educational intent for both Indian and international audiences.
