Photograph of a sketch by Major MacBean of a breach in the Sikh Square, Lucknow. The breach has been filled with gates, shutters and other items. A man is running in front of the breach holding a rifle. There is a caption below him.
The accompanying text for this image, at the front of the book, records that this breach in the Sikh Square area of the city was caused by a mine explosion. The damaged defence was strengthened by items of furniture and building materials taken from nearby houses. -
