EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Lahore Museum, a true gem of architectural beauty nestled in the heart of Lahore, Pakistan. Built during the British colonial period in 1865, this magnificent structure was designed by the renowned Sir Ganga Ram in the Indo-Saracenic Revival style. The photograph captures its grandeur and intricate details with utmost precision. The museum stands as a testament to both India's rich heritage and British influence on its architecture. Its vibrant colors and exquisite craftsmanship make it an iconic landmark that attracts visitors from all over the world. The postcard itself is part of "The Wide-Wide-World Series - Lahore" produced by Raphael Tuck & Sons, a distinguished London-based company. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to the 19th century when Lahore was still part of India under British rule. It serves as a reminder of how history has shaped our present-day landscape and cultural identity. Let us appreciate not only the visual splendor captured within this print but also acknowledge Rai Bahadur Sir Ganga Ram's contribution to preserving our shared heritage through his architectural masterpiece. This print is indeed a treasure that allows us to delve into history and marvel at the fusion between Indian and Western influences found within Lahore Museum's walls.
