EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, specifically c1918, where we find ourselves in Victoria Gardens, Bombay (now Mumbai), India. The focal point of this image is a majestic elephant statue that stands tall amidst the lush landscape of the park. The intricate details of this magnificent sculpture are beautifully captured in monochrome, allowing us to appreciate its grandeur despite the absence of color. The artist's choice to present it in black and white adds a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing its historical significance. Victoria Gardens itself serves as a tranquil oasis within bustling Bombay. Located in Maharashtra, India's vibrant state known for its rich cultural heritage, this serene park offers respite from city life while showcasing stunning natural beauty. Although the creator remains unknown, their skillful composition transports us to an era long gone but not forgotten. This print allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when elephants were revered symbols of power and grace in Indian culture. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry frozen in time, let our imaginations wander through history as we contemplate the stories behind both the statue and those who once strolled through these very gardens over a century ago.
