Framed Print of The Yarkund Mission: Fort of Shahid-Ulla-Khoja, on the Karakash, 1874. Creator: Unknown
The Yarkund Mission: Fort of Shahid-Ulla-Khoja, on the Karakash, 1874. Scene from...the journey of Mr. Douglas Forsyth and his party from India across the Himalayas and Karakorum mountains...We are indebted to Captain E. F. Chapman...[for the] view of the fort of Shahid-ulla-Khoja, or Shadulla, on the Karakash river...12, 000 ft. above the sea level. The British Envoy and his party reached this place on Oct. 17, and remained there until the 23rd, awaiting the arrival of Syad Yakoob Khan, the late Envoy of the Atalik Ghazeh to Constantinople...Shahid-ulla-Khoja is the frontier outpost of Upper or Eastern Turkestan on its southern side. It was originally built by the Maharajah of Cashmere, at the suggestion of the British Government, for the protection of traders when the Chinese ruled in Yarkund and Kashgar; but it came into possession of the Atalik Ghazeh when he became master of these countries in 1866...A small ziarat, or shrine, dedicated to the saintly memory of this Shahid-ulla, is found upon the rock which appears to the left hand in our Engraving...In the foreground of Captain Chapman's view of Shahid-ulla-Khoja we observe the akoe, or Kirghiz tent, which was pitched for the accommodation of the English travellers....
