EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to Hurdwar, now known as Haridwar, India, circa 1881. The image showcases the mesmerizing beauty of this ancient city through an albumen silver print. Hurdwar (Haridwar), a significant pilgrimage site for Hindus, is nestled along the banks of the sacred River Ganges. This photograph captures its ethereal charm and spiritual ambiance that has attracted devotees for centuries. The monochrome tones of the albumen silver print lend a timeless quality to this historical snapshot. The intricate details are brought to life with remarkable clarity, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the scene. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the distant chants and feel a gentle breeze carrying prayers across the river. The bustling streets come alive before our eyes; men and women adorned in traditional attire traverse vibrant marketplaces filled with colorful fabrics and aromatic spices. This print serves as a portal into an era long gone but not forgotten—a testament to both cultural heritage and artistic excellence. It invites us to reflect on India's rich history while appreciating its enduring traditions that continue to thrive today.
