EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, captured by Samuel Bourne in the late 19th century, presents a captivating scene of a Bengal village located near Calcutta, now known as Kolkata, in India. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the region during the British colonial era. The photograph showcases a diverse group of people, both adults and children, engaged in various activities. Some are clustered together, perhaps discussing the day's events or sharing stories, while others are seen at work or play. A man, dressed in traditional attire, sits under the shade of a large tree, possibly taking a break from his daily chores. In the background, the silhouette of a church stands tall, a reminder of the strong Christian influence during that period. The presence of a horse-drawn vehicle suggests a well-connected transportation system, indicating the village's accessibility to the outside world. The scene is further enriched by the presence of traditional houses, their unique architecture reflecting the cultural heritage of the region. The women, dressed in colorful sarees, add a touch of vibrancy to the image. The photograph also reveals the early stages of urbanization, with the emergence of a small cityscape in the distance. Despite the signs of modernization, the village retains its quintessential charm, offering a fascinating contrast to the bustling city life. This photograph, a testament to the rich history and cultural diversity of Bengal, invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the evolution of this fascinating region.
