Old Calcutta - A Glimpse into the Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a bygone era, offering a mesmerizing view across the Hoogli River in Kolkata (formerly known as Calcutta), circa 1800. The image, captured from Fort William, transports us to an enchanting time when India was under British colonial rule. The landscape format of this historic print beautifully showcases the architectural marvels that dotted the city's skyline during that period. Magnificent structures stand tall along the riverbank, reflecting both Indian and European influences in their design. The intricate details of these buildings evoke a sense of grandeur and opulence. As we explore every corner of this photograph, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural heritage that define Kolkata. From bustling markets to serene ghats where people gather for religious rituals, this image encapsulates life on both sides of the Hoogli River. Preserved meticulously over centuries, this particular print is a testament to its enduring significance. Originally engraved in 1964 from an authentic source dating back even further – 52987260 – it serves as a window into an era long past. Allow yourself to be transported through time with this remarkable piece from Hulton Archive's collection. Let your imagination wander as you delve into Old Calcutta's vibrant streetscape and witness its architectural splendor against the backdrop of one of India's most iconic riverscapes.
