EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Territory of Calcutta When Attacked by Surajah Dowlah, 1756" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by James Grant as part of his book "Cassells Illustrated History of India Vol. I. ", this image transports us to the 18th century British Empire in Asia. The print depicts the city of Calcutta, now known as Kolkata, under attack by Surajah Dowlah in 1756. It showcases the colonial era and serves as a reminder of the impact of imperialism on different parts of the world. Through this illustration, we can observe various geographical features such as the River Hooghly flowing alongside Calcutta. The map-like quality adds depth and context to our understanding of this historical event. James Grant's attention to detail is evident in every stroke captured on paper. His artistic prowess brings life to an otherwise distant past, allowing us to visualize how events unfolded during that time period. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of India's rich history but also its resilience and ability to overcome adversity. This print is a testament to the power of art in preserving memories and educating future generations about our shared heritage.
