EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant streets of Calcutta in 1786. The Old Court House and Writers Building stand tall, showcasing the architectural prowess of British colonialism in India. Painted with exquisite detail by Thomas Daniell, this watercolor captures the essence of a bustling cityscape during that era. The scene is filled with activity as people go about their daily lives. A horse-drawn carriage gracefully glides through the street, its presence highlighting the influence and opulence brought by the East India Company. A native man on horseback adds a touch of local flavor to this colonial setting, reminding us of the rich cultural heritage that coexisted with British rule. Pedestrians can be seen strolling along the sidewalk, perhaps going about their business or simply enjoying a leisurely walk amidst these grand structures. Sedan chairs carried by bearers hint at an older mode of transportation still prevalent in those times. This artwork not only showcases historical architecture but also provides a glimpse into everyday life during late 18th-century Calcutta. It serves as a reminder of how different cultures intertwined under colonial rule and how they shaped each other's identities. As we admire this fine art piece, let it transport us back in time and spark our curiosity about India's complex history and its enduring legacy today.
