EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1920, showcases the iconic Howrah Bridge spanning the River Hooghly in Calcutta (now Kolkata), India during the British colonial era. The bridge, an engineering marvel of the time, connects the Howrah and Calcutta districts on either side of the river. The iron pontoon bridge, with its intricate ironwork and imposing structure, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and architectural prowess of the British Raj. The bustling scene on the bridge and the surrounding areas reveals a vibrant and diverse population. Pedestrians, dressed in traditional Indian attire, walk along the pavement, while oxen and carts laden with goods make their way across the bridge. The traffic on the road below is a chaotic blend of horse-drawn carriages, bicycles, and automobiles. The River Hooghly, a major waterway, flows calmly beneath the bridge, reflecting the beauty of the surrounding landscape. The buildings on the banks of the river, with their colonial architecture and red-tiled roofs, add to the picturesque setting. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of life in Calcutta during the 1920s. The blend of cultures, the bustling activity, and the architectural grandeur make it an intriguing and captivating image that continues to fascinate viewers even today.
