Photograph of a general view of the ground on which the Imperial Assemblage of 1877 took place to the north of Delhi. In the background stands the central dais, topped with a crown and emblazoned with pennants. Bordering the dais is the amphitheatre audience stand, built on white stone foundations and topped with a fabric roof in the shape of a pediment. In the foreground stand spectators with their backs to the viewer, including soldiers wearing pith helmets.
