 * Comment: The caption here claims that the illustration shows a mosque. The caption in the article specifies that it is a mosque in Srinagar, Kasmir. The original caption from the book the picture is taken from states that it is "the hall of audience in the moghal palace at Delhi", i.e. the Diwan-i-Am (Red Fort). The original caption in the book appears to be correct, or am I wrong? --Hegvald (talk) 07:19, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pointing out the the original caption. I went by the caption given by the img uploader. You are right. I have now removed the img from the hook and added an alternate img.  Nvvchar . 09:42, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
