Grindlay explains that the Bombay ‘Green’ in 1811 was “an irregular area, surrounded by various public buildings and originally intended for the Garrison-Parade; but occupied during the dry season by vast piles of cotton bales, marine stores, and various bulky articles of merchandise.” The main buildings in this image of the Green are the offices of the Governor’s Secretary and the Sudder Adalat, or Court of Appeal. On the right is the theatre. The figure in the centre is a Parsi merchant.” (Source: British Library Board)
