EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, captured by the talented artist Frederick Fiebig in the 1840s, showcases a panoramic view of Calcutta, India. The image provides a mesmerizing aerial perspective of this bustling city during the British Raj era. The focal point of the print is undoubtedly the magnificent Strand and cricket ground. This sports ground stands proudly amidst a backdrop of grand buildings that reflect the architectural influence of Victorian times. The scene exudes an air of sophistication and elegance, characteristic of 19th-century Calcutta. As our eyes wander across the print, we are drawn to the River Hooghly flowing gracefully alongside the cityscape. Ships dotting its waters remind us of Calcutta's significance as a major port for trade and transportation during this period. The streets below reveal glimpses into daily life in colonial India - people strolling along lanes and avenues, horse-drawn carriages traversing through busy roads. These elements add depth to Fiebig's portrayal of Calcutta as a vibrant metropolis teeming with activity. With meticulous attention to detail, Fiebig captures not only physical features but also conveys a sense of time and place within his artwork. This lithograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation that transports viewers back to 19th-century India. Frederick Fiebig's skillful hand has immortalized this iconic moment in Indian history, allowing us to appreciate both its beauty and cultural significance even today.
