EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, captured by the talented artist Frederick Fiebig in the 1840s, showcases the majestic Government House and Town Hall in Calcutta, India. The aerial view of this architectural marvel takes us back to a time when the British Empire reigned over this vibrant city. The image transports us to 19th century Calcutta, with its bustling streets and grand buildings that reflect the influence of Victorian design. The Government House stands tall as a symbol of power and governance, while the nearby Town Hall serves as a hub for civic affairs. As we gaze upon this monochrome print, we are drawn into the rich history of India's capital during colonial times. The River Hooghly gracefully flows alongside these magnificent structures, adding an element of serenity amidst the urban landscape. Fiebig's attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of these landmarks but also their integration within their surroundings. Every lane and avenue seems meticulously planned, showcasing West Bengal's unique geography. This lithograph is more than just a piece of art; it encapsulates an era when Calcutta was known as Hindoostan under British rule. It offers us a glimpse into life during "the Raj" – a period that shaped both Indian and British history. Through Fiebig's lens, we can explore this historical gem from afar – Kolkata’s past frozen in time for all generations to admire.
