MS. Ouseley Add. 173 at the Oxford Digital Library :
"An album of 34 leaves containing Indian paintings and calligraphy, with two lithographs inserted, and a manuscript introduction of 5 leaves (viii-xi) and other notes by Sir Gore Ouseley (1770-1844). [..] The paintings ostensibly depict the Mughal royal lineage, but some have been misidentified."
