Upper Chitpore Road, Calcutta (Kolkata), India, circa 1890s: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures Upper Chitpore Road in Calcutta (now Kolkata), India, during the late 1890s. The image transports us back in time, offering a rare glimpse into the bustling streets of this historic city during the British Raj. Upper Chitpore Road, located in the northern part of Calcutta, was a major thoroughfare that connected the city with its suburbs. In this photograph, we see a lively scene of horse-drawn carriages and rickshaws navigating the dusty road, while pedestrians go about their daily business. The photograph also reveals the diverse population of the city, with people of various ethnicities and religions coexisting peacefully. The image is filled with intriguing details that tell the story of life in Calcutta during this era. We see vendors selling their wares on the sidewalks, children playing in the streets, and a group of men gathered around what appears to be a game of chess. In the background, we catch a glimpse of the majestic Maratha Darwaza, a historic gateway that once marked the northern entrance to the city. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and vibrant energy of Calcutta during the late 19th century. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of this bustling city and to appreciate the enduring legacy of its past.
