EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate print, drawn and engraved by Andrea Bernieri after Francois Solvyns, depicts a bustling scene in Calcutta, then known as the capital of British India and home to a large Hindu population. The image, taken from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World published in Florence, Italy, in 1844, showcases the unique architectural beauty of Hindu temples and buildings against the backdrop of the bustling city. In the foreground, an ox-drawn cart laden with goods makes its way through the narrow streets, surrounded by Hindu devotees dressed in traditional attire. The intricately designed temples, with their ornate facades, towering spires, and elaborate carvings, stand proudly amidst the chaos of the city. The use of vibrant colours in the print adds to the visual richness of the scene, highlighting the vibrant culture and traditions of the Bengalee people. The print offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history and heritage of Calcutta and its Hindu community during the colonial era. The intricate details of the buildings and the people, captured through the skillful hand of Bernieri, make this print a valuable historical and artistic treasure. The print also underscores the importance of cultural exchange and the preservation of diverse traditions, making it a must-have for anyone interested in the history of India, colonialism, or world cultures.
