EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Among the roots of a banyan tree, Calcutta, India, 1900s" transports us to the enchanting orchards of Calcutta in early 20th century India. The image was captured by renowned photographers Underwood & Underwood using stereoscopic photography techniques. In this mesmerizing scene, we see a lone male figure standing amidst the intricate thicket of roots belonging to a majestic banyan tree. His direct gaze suggests an intimate connection with nature as he becomes one with his surroundings. The immense size and complexity of the banyan tree's root system is awe-inspiring, symbolizing strength and resilience. The monochrome composition adds depth and texture to the photograph while emphasizing the timeless beauty of this natural wonder. As we delve into every detail of this stereoscopic slide, we are transported back in time to witness life in rural Bengal during an era when agriculture played a vital role in sustaining communities. This evocative image not only showcases the rich biodiversity found within Indian landscapes but also serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness with nature. It invites us to appreciate the wonders that exist among us and encourages us to protect these precious ecosystems for future generations.
