EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "South East View of the New Government House, Calcutta" takes us back in time to the era of British colonial rule in India. The print showcases the majestic architecture of the Government House, which was built in 1803 and served as the residence for the Governor of West Bengal. The image captures a bustling scene outside the grand building. A man is seen walking with purpose, flanked by servants carrying a palanquin - a traditional mode of transportation in India. A loyal dog accompanies them on their journey. The facade of the Government House stands tall and imposing, adorned with elegant columns that exude power and authority. The print offers a glimpse into daily life during this period, where colonial influence intertwines with Indian traditions. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era long gone but still remembered through historical records like this engraving. As we admire this piece from Moffat's collection, it serves as a reminder of how art can transport us to different times and places. It allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to preserve history and culture for generations to come.
