EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1788, showcasing the Old Government House in Kolkata, India. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but its historical significance is undeniable. Featured in Lord Curzon's book "British Government in India" published in 1925, this photograph provides a glimpse into the architectural marvels of colonial British India. The grandeur of the building exterior is beautifully captured against a monochrome backdrop. Standing tall amidst lush surroundings, it exudes an air of authority and power that symbolizes British imperialism during the 18th century. The facade reflects intricate details and design elements typical of that era. Intriguingly, camels grace the foreground of this picture - an unexpected sight amidst such regal architecture. These animals add a touch of exoticism to the scene while reminding us of Bengal Presidency's diverse cultural heritage. Lord Curzon himself was known for his role as Viceroy and Governor-General during this period. His fascination with Indian history and literature shines through his writings on British Raj and colonialism. As we admire this vintage print from Heritage Images' collection, we are transported back to a time when government houses were symbols of imperial rule. It serves as a reminder not only of our shared past but also prompts contemplation about how far we have come since then.
