c19.s2.24

A life-size statue of a horse in red sandstone standing on the left-hand side of the Sikandarah road about two miles from Agra, near the garden of Sūraj Bhān, and opposite a masonry Muhammadan tomb, may be a work of Mughal age, but nothing definite about it is known, and no photograph is available. Mr. Beglar's conjecture that it may date from the time of Sikandar Lodī, the idol-breaking Sultan in the fifteenth century, is extremely improbable.²
