J.H. Lynch from an original drawing by Baron Adam Friedel
(fl.1833). Plate 6 of 'Eight Most Splendid Views of India, sketched
by an Officer in the Indian Army' printed by Baron A Friedel in
London in 1833.This collection provides eight views of forts
situated in the modern state of Maharashtra. In 1818, the British
gained control of this area from the Marathas, a Hindu kingdom was
established by Shivaji (r.1645-1680). The summits of the Western
Ghats, a range of hills that separate the western coast from the
central plains of India, were well suited for such defensive
structures.
