EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur of Victoria Chambers, a neoclassical architectural masterpiece located on Chowringhee Road in Calcutta (now Kolkata), India, during the early 1920s. The building, which once housed the Whiteaway Laidlaw & Co Ltd department store, stands proudly as a testament to the British colonial influence in India during the 19th and 20th centuries. The Corinthian columns, intricately carved dentils, and ornate domes adorned with classical motifs are a sight to behold. The clock tower, with its large clock face, adds a sense of grandeur and importance to the structure. The building's symmetrical facade, with its wide, arched windows, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The Victoria Chambers, named after Queen Victoria, was a significant landmark in Calcutta's urban landscape during the British Raj. It was one of the many grand buildings that lined the bustling Chowringhee Road, which was the city's main commercial hub. The building's imposing presence and classical design were a reflection of the British Empire's power and influence in India. The photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the hustle and bustle of the bustling streets of Calcutta during the 1920s. The image is a reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity of India and the enduring legacy of the British colonial era.
