View in the Punjaub: Banks of the Ravee, at Shapore, 1857. India. 'The accompanying view upon one of the six rivers of the Punjaub presents a good specimen of the varied scenery of the country. The Ravee, upon whose bank this view has been sketched, rises in Kulu, on the declivity of a mountain called Bungall, and a short distance west of the Rotang Pass...[Vigne wrote:] "I have been twice ferried over the Ravi at Bisuli - once during the rainy season, when it was swelled to a roaring torrent, and once, again, in winter, when its stream was far more tranquil. On both occasions the natives made the passage upon buffalo-hides. Its width is about eighty yards".' From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
