EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, hailing from the late 19th century, showcases the iconic Howrah Pontoon Bridge spanning the Hooghly River in Calcutta, India. The bridge, a marvel of engineering during that era, connects the cities of Howrah and Calcutta, and has been a vital link between the two for over a century. The image, captured in the 1880s or 1890s, presents a mesmerizing scene of the bridge at sunset. The setting sun casts a warm, golden glow on the bridge's wooden supports, while the sky above is adorned with a tapestry of clouds, some tinged with the last remnants of the day's light. The Hooghly River, a significant waterway, is calm and serene, reflecting the bridge's grandeur and the traditional boats and ships moored along the coastline. The architecture of the bridge, a testament to the Victorian era, stands proudly against the backdrop of the city skyline. The pier, with its intricate design and sturdy construction, is a sight to behold, showcasing the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the time. The bustling streets and town, with their traditional buildings and structures, can be glimpsed in the distance, adding to the vibrant scenery. This photograph is an invaluable piece of history, offering a glimpse into the past and the rich cultural heritage of India. The Howrah Pontoon Bridge, with its enduring presence, continues to be a popular tourist destination and a landmark that embodies the spirit of Calcutta and its people.
