EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Gate of Hari, or Vishnu, Hurdwar" takes us back to 19th century India during the time of the British Empire. The engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases a significant historical site in Haridwar known as the Gate of Hari or Vishnu. The gate holds immense cultural and religious significance for Indians, particularly Hindus. It is believed to be a gateway to salvation and is associated with Lord Vishnu, one of the most revered deities in Hindu mythology. This stunning artwork was featured in Charles Ball's book "The History of the Indian Mutiny" which sheds light on the First War of Indian Independence against colonial rule. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to an era marked by rebellion and uprising against British colonialism. The gate stands tall amidst Victorian-style buildings that reflect both Indian and European architectural influences. Its presence serves as a reminder of India's rich history and struggle for independence. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this print captures not only a physical structure but also echoes the resilience and spirit of the Indian people during a tumultuous period. It allows us to delve into India's past while appreciating its diverse culture and heritage that continues to thrive today.
