EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a historic view of the river looking north from the Hooghly Bridge in Calcutta, India. The image, taken by an Indian photographer in the 19th century and later reproduced for a new edition of "Glimpses of the East" in the early 20th century, showcases a bustling scene with factories lining the riverbanks and ships navigating through its waters.
The intricate details captured in this photograph provide a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Calcutta during this time period. The towering smokestacks of factories contrast against the serene flow of the river, creating a fascinating juxtaposition between industry and nature.
As you study this image, you can almost hear the sounds of activity along the waterfront - from workers toiling away in the factories to sailors preparing their vessels for departure. It's as if you've been transported back in time to witness firsthand what life was like on these bustling shores.
Whether you have a personal connection to Calcutta or simply appreciate historical photography, this print is sure to spark your imagination and transport you to another era. Display it proudly in your home or office as a reminder of days gone by and as a tribute to India's vibrant past.
