EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the magnificent Great Indian Peninsular Railway Victoria Terminus and Administrative Offices in Bombay. The recently completed architectural marvel stands tall, reflecting the grandeur of British colonialism in India. The image captures a bustling scene with background people going about their daily lives amidst this historic landmark. The gothic-style building exterior exudes an air of elegance and power, symbolizing the might of the British Empire during its rule over India. The Victorian-era structure is a testament to the rich history and heritage of Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay. Its Italian Gothic design adds a touch of sophistication to this iconic railway station that has witnessed countless journeys throughout time. As we gaze at this illustration from The Graphic newspaper, we are transported to an era when railways were transforming transportation across countries. This print serves as a reminder of how rail networks played a crucial role in connecting different parts of India under British Raj. Today, Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (formerly Victoria Terminus) still stands proudly as a World Heritage Site recognized by UNESCO. It continues to serve as one of Mumbai's busiest train stations while preserving its historical significance. Although the creator remains unknown, their work immortalizes an important chapter in Indian history - one where architecture meets transportation and colonialism intertwines with local culture.
