Vrouwen met waterkannen op de trappen van de waterput van Adalaj
After Samuel Bourne returned to England in 1870, Colin Murray took over his role as chief photographer at Bourne & Shepherd. Murray here photographed a famous architectural tradition in India: wells with steps, which were built by rulers in the arid regions of western India. The well of Adalaj was built in 1498 by Queen Rudadevi, in memory of her late husband Rana Veer Singh.
