EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back to the year 1877, providing a glimpse into the world of colonial India. The image showcases a Planters bungalow, standing proudly amidst a lush garden in Behar, British India. The albumen silver print captures the essence of this era with remarkable detail. The bungalow itself is an architectural marvel, constructed with thatched roofs and bamboo walls that blend harmoniously with its natural surroundings. Ponies can be seen grazing nearby, serving as a reminder of the transportation methods prevalent during those times. The plantation's significance becomes evident as we observe workers tending to indigo crops in the background. This visual representation highlights the importance of agriculture and industry in sustaining both native communities and British imperialism. A servant stands by attentively, emphasizing the stark contrast between those who owned these plantations and those who labored on them. It serves as a poignant reminder of colonialism's impact on Indian society at large. Oscar Jean Baptiste Mallitte skillfully captured this moment in time through his lens, immortalizing not only a physical space but also an entire way of life. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from Allahabad's J. Paul Getty Museum collection in Los Angeles, we are transported back to an era when cultivation and commerce intertwined within the vast landscape of British India.
