Hand-coloured etching of a river view with a stone terrace, domed buildings, trees, and small boats on the water under a cloudy sky.

View of Part of the City of Oud, from the Ghaghara River

A hand-coloured etching of a riverside city view: a stone terrace with steps and a domed building stands beside the water, framed by trees, a hillside, and small boats in the foreground. Clouds fill the pale sky, and a domed structure rises on the distant left hill.
