EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the opulent era of British colonial rule in India.

It serves as a reminder of a complex chapter in history - one filled with both admiration for architectural brilliance and reflection on colonialism's impact. This print allows us to appreciate not only Lord Curzon's contribution to literature but also highlights the significance of preserving such visual records for future generations to understand our shared
