EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the serene beauty of the Scottish Church in Colpetty, Colombo, Sri Lanka, circa 1920. The image transports us back in time to an era of colonial elegance and tranquility. The Scottish Church, also known as St. Andrew's Kirk, is a prominent landmark in Colombo's rich architectural landscape. Its distinctive red-tiled roof and tall spire rise majestically against the backdrop of lush tropical greenery. The scene unfolds on a quiet, tree-lined street, where the sun casts dappled shadows on the cobblestones. The church's whitewashed walls, adorned with intricate carvings and Gothic arches, exude an air of timeless grace. A few figures can be seen in the foreground, adding a sense of scale and human connection to the image. The Scottish Church was built in the late 19th century to serve the Scottish community in Colombo. Its stained glass windows, imported from Scotland, bathe the interior in vibrant colors and light. Over the years, the church has become a beloved symbol of Colombo's multicultural heritage and a testament to the enduring influence of Scottish colonial history in Sri Lanka. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the past, inviting us to reflect on the history and culture of Colpetty and Colombo. It is a beautiful and evocative image that captures the essence of a bygone era and the enduring allure of Sri Lanka's colonial past.
