Kānpur, India: the memorial to the massacre of 1857. Photograph attributed to S. Bourne, 186-.

The memorial, including a marble sculpture of an angel standing on a wellhead, stands on the site in Cawnpore (Kānpur) of a well in which the bodies of 200 women and children were stuffed after they had been hacked to death in the course of hostilities (the Sepoy Rebellion, Indian Mutiny etc.). The statue was sculpted by Baron Carlo Marochetti ca. 1860. A slightly different photograph is also in the Wellcome Library (catalogue no. 655114i)
