Felice Beato, ca. 1858-1860, Albumen print, Victorial & Albert Museum
British photographer Felice Beato took the earliest known photographs of the Darbar Sahib complex in the late 1850′s. This photograph of the Darshani Deori gateway and the Lachi Ber tree in front of it where Guru Arjan used to sit also shows a section of the lost palace behind and to the right edge of the frame. We are fortunate to have this important photographic evidence as the majority of photographs of the Darbar Sahib complex date to the late 1860′s onwards, a time period when the lost palace had already been demolished by the British. |
