EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the breathtaking view of Calcutta from the Monument, showcasing the bustling city in all its historic glory. The intricate details of the architecture and streets below are beautifully captured by the Indian photographer from the 19th century, giving us a glimpse into a bygone era. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in an edition of "Glimpses of the East" by J.W. Stevens around 1900. The photo credit goes to Bourne and Shepherd, renowned for their exquisite photography during that time period. As we gaze upon this snapshot of Calcutta's past, we are transported back to a time when horse-drawn carriages filled the streets and grand buildings lined the skyline. The monument itself stands tall as a testament to India's rich history and cultural heritage. This photograph serves as a reminder of how far Calcutta has come since then, yet still retains its charm and allure. It is a window into another world, inviting us to explore and appreciate the beauty of this vibrant city in all its glory.
