Panoramic photograph of a number of boys jumping into the pool by the baoli or stepwell, at Nizamuddin Dargh, the mausoleum of the Sufi saint Khwaja Nizammuddin Auliya, in Delhi. Queen Mary captioned the photographed 'boys diving into the tank'; it may have been taken by a member of the Royal Household, on the visit to the Mausoleum. The Prince and Princess of Wales, later King George V and Queen Mary, visited Delhi from 12 to 15 December 1905.
