EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Char-wallah, Howshera, 1917" takes us back to the bustling streets of India in the early 20th century. The image captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing an elderly Indian man dressed in traditional attire. With his turban and headdress adorning his head, he sits comfortably outside his stall as a market trader. The photograph beautifully portrays the essence of daily life during that era. The man's weathered face tells stories of wisdom and experience gained over years spent serving tea to passersby. Crouching on the ground with a jacket draped over his shoulders, he exudes both grace and humility. In this busy marketplace scene, we see other individuals going about their day while the sun blinds are drawn above them. This charming portrait offers a glimpse into not only one person's occupation but also highlights the vibrant trade culture that thrived within this country at that time. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this historical piece captured by an unknown creator. Preserved through time by The Print Collector, it serves as a testament to India's rich heritage and traditions. As we gaze upon this image from 1917, we can't help but appreciate its timeless beauty and reflect on how much has changed since then while cherishing our connection to history
