EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the grandeur of the Diwan-i-Am, also known as the Hall of Public Audiences, located within the majestic Lal Quila or Red Fort in Delhi, India. The fort itself was a masterpiece constructed by Mughal Emperor Shahjahan during the years 1638 to 1648. In this remarkable image captured around 1900 by Henry Guttmann, we are transported into an era where commoners were granted an audience with the Emperor. The Diwan-i-Am served as a space for these encounters, where people from all walks of life could present their grievances or seek justice. The architectural brilliance of this hall is evident even in monochrome tones. Intricate arches and ornate details adorn every corner, showcasing Mughal craftsmanship at its finest. The photograph's portrait format allows us to appreciate the height and scale of this magnificent structure. As we gaze upon this historical gem frozen in time, it reminds us of India's rich heritage and cultural legacy. It serves as a testament to the opulence and power that once resided within these walls. This print is not just a piece of art but also a window into history - an invitation to explore and immerse ourselves in the splendorous past that shaped our world today.
