Gezicht op waterwerken bij een kruising van de Ganges met een andere rivier before 1867

This 19th-century photograph by Thomas George Glover depicts the Dhunowree Works, a series of waterworks along the Ganges River in India. Taken before 1867, the image captures a view looking upstream, showcasing the intricate construction of the waterworks, including a bridge, a series of stone pillars, and a riverbank lined with trees. The photograph serves as a historical record of the infrastructure and engineering projects undertaken in colonial India. It is a testament to Glover's keen eye for detail, capturing the complexities of the construction process with a focus on both the human element and the natural landscape.
