EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1910, showcases the grandeur of Queens House in Colombo, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), during the British colonial era. Queens House, now known as Presidents House, served as the official residence of the British Governor of Ceylon. The large, imposing building is situated along a bustling city street, with the vibrant greenery of trees lining the pavement and providing a striking contrast to the red-tiled roof and whitewashed walls of the residence. The image reveals a bustling scene of activity on the road, with pedestrians and rickshaws making their way through the cobblestone streets. The rickshaws, a common mode of transportation during this time, add a sense of energy and movement to the scene. The presence of the British flag atop the building serves as a reminder of the colonial influence that shaped the city of Colombo and the island nation of Ceylon. The capital city of Colombo, with its rich history and diverse population, was a hub of activity during the 1910s. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life of the city and its inhabitants during the British colonial period. The grandeur and elegance of Queens House stand as a testament to the power and influence of the British Empire at the time, while the hustle and bustle of the city scene remind us of the vibrant and dynamic nature of life in Colombo.
