Photograph of Farah Bagh, Ahmednagar taken from the east. The derelict building has a large arched recess at the centre with smaller recessed arches on two storeys to either side. Plants are growing out of the cracks in the building and there are trees to either side. There is a lake in the foreground.
Farah Bagh was the centrepiece of a palace complex completed in 1583. By the 1850s much of the complex was in ruins.Provenance
