Northbrook Hall in Dhaka (Currently in Bangladesh) - 1904

Northbrook Hall in Dhaka (Currently in Bangladesh) - 1904

Photograph taken by Fritz Kapp in 1904 of buildings in Dacca (now Dhaka), part of an album of 30 prints from the Curzon Collection. The view is of Northbrook Hall designed in the so-called Indo-Saracenic style, with Johnson Hall, in a similar style, visible in the background. The buildings may have been attached to Dhaka University at this date, but later Northbrook Hall functioned as the Town Hall.
