EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1895, capturing a mesmerizing view of the Citadel of Attock and a bridge of boats over the mighty Indus River in Pakistan. The image is taken from "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" written by Elisee Reclus and published by Virtue & Co. Limited. In this enchanting engraving, we witness the grandeur of both nature and human ingenuity. The majestic mountain range serves as an awe-inspiring backdrop, showcasing Asia's breathtaking geographical features. Nestled within this picturesque landscape stands the formidable Citadel of Attock, a fortress-like building that exudes strength and defense. Connecting two sides of the Indus Valley lies a pontoon bridge constructed entirely from boats—a remarkable engineering feat for its time. This vital link allows access to this strategic location while harmoniously blending into its surroundings. Elisee Reclus skillfully captures this moment in history through his meticulous attention to detail, presenting us with a monochrome masterpiece that evokes nostalgia for the past century. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Pakistan's rich geography but also its historical significance as a country marked by fortifications like Attock Fort. "The Citadel of Attock and a bridge of boats over the Indus" invites us on an imaginary journey through time—an opportunity to appreciate both natural wonders and human achievements that have shaped our world throughout centuries gone by.
