Bombay area. A steam launch off the coast with carriages waiting.

A large full plate photograph, 11.5 x 9ins, on thick grey card photographer’s mount of Bourne & Shepherd, overall size 18 x 15 ins. This photograph came to us from the family of wealthy Parsee shipping magnate, Sir Dhunjibhoy Bomanji, who had residences in Bombay and Poona and later a grand House in Windsor. The steam launch may well have belonged to Bomanji who later had a motor launch on the Thames at Windsor. The image is somewhat foxed. The large size of this card will make shipping abroad a little expensive. Reserved 5th january 2019
