EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Bank of Bengal, in Calcutta" - an exquisite engraving created by the English School in the 19th century. The image takes us back to a time when architecture was celebrated for its grandeur and attention to detail. Designed by Messrs Mackintosh, Burn, and Co, Architects, this iconic building stands as a testament to their skill and vision. The intricate carvings adorning its facade are a reflection of the rich cultural heritage found in Calcutta (now Kolkata), India. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported to an era where construction was not just about functionality but also about creating architectural marvels that would stand the test of time. The Bank of Bengal is a symbol of power and prosperity that once graced the cityscape. The print captures every minute detail with precision, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in its creation. It serves as a reminder of India's glorious past and pays homage to Asian ethnicity.
