EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to 19th century Delhi, India. The steel engraving by Illman and Pilbrow beautifully captures the essence of this bustling city with its intricate details and architectural marvels. The drawing by William Purser serves as the foundation for this stunning piece of art. As we gaze upon the image, we are transported to a vibrant cityscape filled with life and energy. A dusty dirt road winds through the town, lined with buildings that showcase the unique architecture of the era. Majestic minarets rise high into the sky, adding an air of grandeur to the scene. Intriguingly, amidst all this urban chaos, an elephant gracefully makes its way down one of the streets. This glimpse into everyday life reminds us of India's rich cultural heritage and its harmonious coexistence between humans and animals. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this engraving - from capturing each brick on a building facade to portraying people going about their daily activities. It is truly a scenic view frozen in time. This print allows us to appreciate not only Delhi's historical significance but also showcases how transportation has evolved over time. It serves as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since then, some things remain constant - like our fascination with exploring different cultures through art.
