EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 18th century, specifically to Old Fort William in Kolkata, West Bengal. The image showcases the fort's impressive architecture as it stands proudly on the banks of the River Hooghly. The unknown creator beautifully captures the essence of this historical landmark, transporting us to a time when British colonialism was at its peak. The photograph is taken from a book titled "British Government in India" by Lord Curzon of Kedleston, published in 1925. Lord Curzon himself was a prominent figure during this era and played a significant role in shaping British India. Intriguingly, the photo depicts ships sailing along the river with billowing smoke rising from their chimneys. This hints at an intense sea battle or trade activity taking place near Old Fort William. It serves as a reminder of how crucial water transport was for both warfare and commerce during that period. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and character to this remarkable piece of artistry. As we gaze upon it, we are transported into an era where customs houses stood tall and sail masts dotted the horizon. This print not only captures a specific geographical location but also symbolizes an entire concept: imperialism and its impact on trade, transportation, and war during that time period. It serves as a valuable historical document that allows us to reflect upon our past while appreciating its artistic beauty.
