  25. In support of the saying 'To Blow One's Top Off' I present this c1815 CE #CompanyPainting from #Benares #Varanasi now at British Library #Museum

    The front & back #Painting of a Sepoy (Soldier) of #EastIndiaCompany

    With Military Caps like that, even a dog bark would've been sufficient to blow his top off!

  27. #India is home to 1000's of Structures of Historical Value, most of which Lie Neglected or Undocumented.

    Like, I found this, the #Ojhala Bridge in #Gopalpur #Mirzapur #UttarPradesh on the National Highway (NH) 35 of the Road Connecting #Allahabad (now #Prayagraj) with #Varanasi (#Benares or #Banaras) on the River #Ganges (#Ganga).
    650 Kilometres from #Delhi #NewDelhi & #Calcutta #Kolkata

    Locals inform me that it was built in 1772 by the #EastIndiaCompany
