Old Fort William, from the River, 1754 - A Glimpse into British Colonial India
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1754, capturing a moment in time when Old Fort William stood proudly on the banks of the Hooghly River in Calcutta, Bengal Presidency. The image is featured in Lord Curzon of Kedleston's renowned book "British Government in India" published by Cassell and Company Ltd in 1925. The photograph showcases the architectural grandeur of this colonial stronghold, built by the East India Company as a symbol of British power and dominance. The imposing fortification with its intricate facade stands tall against the backdrop of bustling river activity. Boats gracefully glide along the Hooghly while locals go about their daily routines. Lord Curzon's meticulous documentation allows us to delve into an era marked by imperialism and colonialism. This visual representation offers insight into both historical geography and literature surrounding British Raj rule over India. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to a time when Old Fort William was not only a military stronghold but also served as a customs house for trade between Britain and its Indian territories. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can encapsulate stories of power dynamics within geographical locations. This print is more than just an artistic portrayal; it represents an important chapter in history that continues to shape our understanding of cultural heritage today.
