EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Clive Road in Calcutta, India, during the late 19th century. The image showcases a snapshot of life in this vibrant city, beautifully capturing its rich history and cultural heritage. In this monochrome scene, horse-drawn vehicles and trams navigate through the busy traffic on Clive Road. The street is lined with charming buildings that exude an old-world charm, reflecting the architectural style of that era. As we gaze at this picture, we can almost feel the energy and dynamism of daily life unfolding before our eyes. The print transports us to a time when transportation was primarily reliant on horses and trams. It offers a glimpse into how people moved around the city, highlighting their reliance on these traditional modes of transport. Calcutta's unique blend of Indian culture and British influence is evident in every corner captured by Bourne & Shepherd's lens. This photograph serves as a testament to their exceptional talent for documenting India's landscapes and sites during colonial times. As we admire this historical gem from Inde Anglaise: Sites et Paysages published by L Boulanger in Paris, it reminds us of how much cities evolve over time while still retaining traces of their past.
