EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Old Court House Street in Kolkata, formerly known as Calcutta, India during the 1860s. The image is believed to be captured by renowned British photographer Samuel Bourne, who expertly documented various aspects of Indian life during his time. The scene depicts a vibrant and lively street filled with people going about their daily activities. The architecture showcases the fusion of British colonial influence and traditional Indian design, reflecting the rich history and cultural diversity of this iconic city. As we gaze at this vintage photograph, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carriages traversed cobblestone roads and merchants lined up their shops along the bustling thoroughfare. The intricate details captured by Bourne's lens bring alive the essence of a bygone era - from the ornate facades of buildings to the colorful attire worn by locals. This stunning piece serves not only as a decorative wall art but also as a historical archive that allows us to delve into Kolkata's past. It evokes nostalgia for those who have witnessed its transformation over time while offering an intriguing glimpse into what life was like in 19th-century British India.
