EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the grandeur and architectural splendor of the New Government House at Gunesh Khind, Poonah, Bombay. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a significant historical landmark in India's rich heritage. The New Government House stands tall against a picturesque backdrop, exuding power and authority. Its magnificent facade reflects a harmonious blend of Indian and European architectural styles. The intricate detailing on its walls and domes is a testament to the craftsmanship of that era. Located in Gunesh Khind, Poonah (now Pune), this iconic structure served as the seat of governance for British officials during colonial times. It symbolized their control over India's political affairs and showcased their dominance over the region. The illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on March 12,1870, providing readers with a glimpse into distant lands through its pages. Today, it serves as a valuable historical artifact that transports us back to an era when Bombay (now Mumbai) was known as "the city of dreams". This print not only celebrates architecture but also sheds light on Indian culture and identity during colonial rule. It reminds us of our shared history while offering insights into how different cultures influenced each other. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate and learn from.
