EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite albumen print captured by the renowned British photographer Samuel Bourne during the late 1860s. The photograph showcases the breathtaking view of Agra Fort, a historic fortification in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. The Fort, also known as the Red Fort of Agra, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a significant historical landmark. The image presents a captivating perspective of the fort's facade, with its grand architecture and intricate red sandstone walls. The Lenana, a hill located to the north of the fort, serves as the perfect vantage point for this stunning photograph. The garden areas within the fort, adorned with lush greenery, add to the serene beauty of the scene. Samuel Bourne, a pioneering figure in the field of photography, traveled extensively across India during the 19th century, documenting the rich heritage and culture of the country. This photograph, taken in the late 1860s, is a testament to his exceptional skill and artistic vision. The black and white, high contrast image, with its intricate details and sharp focus, transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and majesty of the Agra Fort during the British colonial era. Today, this photograph is part of the impressive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of India's historic sites and the importance of preserving our cultural heritage for future generations. Agra Fort, The Lenana, Late 1860s, by Samuel Bourne, is not only a remarkable work of art but also a valuable historical document that offers insights into the architectural, cultural, and historical significance of this magnificent fortification in Agra, India.
