EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to a bustling bazaar in Darjeeling, West Bengal, India, circa 1910. The image is part of the publication "Views of Darjeeling with Typical Native Portraits and Groups" by J. Burlington Smith, published by Hood & Co. Ltd. In this snapshot of early 20th century Asia, we see a vibrant market scene filled with people engaged in various trades and occupations. Women wearing traditional headscarves and headdresses can be seen selling an array of bric-a-brac, jewelry, and other goods. Their intricate accessories add a touch of elegance to their attire. The atmosphere is alive with activity as buyers peruse the stalls while others engage in street trading or weigh precious items for sale. A lady clad in old-fashioned clothing captivates our attention as she enjoys a cigarette break amidst her busy day as a street seller. This monochrome portrait not only captures the essence of Indian culture but also provides valuable insight into the country's rich history of trade and commerce. It serves as a testament to the resilience and entrepreneurial spirit that has characterized Indian markets throughout centuries. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Print Collector collection, we are transported back to an era where tradition met modernity on the streets of Darjeeling—a true gem nestled within West Bengal's breathtaking landscapes.
