1850s Calcutta Captain R B Hill Fort Hooghly Shipping
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to the bustling port of Hooghly Fort in Calcutta during the 1850s. The image, captured on an albumen silver print by Artokoloro, transports us to a time when ships dominated the horizon and trade flourished along these historic shores. Measuring an impressive 183 x 24 cm, this photograph showcases the grandeur and scale of maritime activity that once defined this region. The intricate details captured in this image allow us to marvel at the craftsmanship of these magnificent vessels as they navigate through the waters of Hooghly River. The composition expertly captures both movement and stillness simultaneously. We can almost feel the gentle breeze rustling through our hair as we observe each ship's sails billowing against a clear blue sky. The fort itself stands tall and proud, serving as a silent witness to centuries of maritime history. It is worth noting that Captain R. B Hill was behind this remarkable piece of artistry. His keen eye for detail has immortalized this moment in time, allowing future generations to appreciate not only his skill but also gain insight into life during colonial-era Calcutta. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, it serves as a reminder of how photography can transport us across time and space. It invites contemplation about our shared human experience while celebrating both natural beauty and man-made wonders alike.
