Interesting Pictures

The below picture is said to be of last mughel King Bahadur Shah Zafar in exile in his last days. Its interesting to have a real picture of a mughel king as they are a great part of Indian History. First lets see some facts
The first permanent photograph was made in 1826 by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce using a sliding wooden box camera and Bahadur Shah Zafar died on 7 November 1862. so its quite possible that some one in Burma may be able to take some photograph because he was a big celeberity of his time as the last king from the great Mughel dynasty(for those who dont know, Tajmahal was built by a mughel King also)

A painting showing Bahadur Shah in his full Glory as the King of India. offcourse before British Came.
