An black and white portrait photograph of the Silver Jubilee Clock Tower in Mysore [Mysuru], with ornamental gardens in front. The hands of the clock are showing 11:30. A clouded sky is visible above. Original caption (beneath, in ink): ‘Mysore’.

This tower (also known as Dodda Gadiyara) was built in 1927 to mark the 25-year rule of Krishnaraja Wadiyar IV (1884-1940). The numerals on the clock face are in Kannada, a language spoken in southwestern India.
