EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the royal capital of Kashmir, India in 1922. The image showcases a magnificent state barge belonging to a Maharaja, symbolizing the opulence and grandeur of Indian royalty during that era. The artist behind this masterpiece is GT Bookless, whose talent brings forth the intricate details of this regal watercraft. As we gaze upon it, we can almost hear the rhythmic splashing of oarsmen rowing with precision and grace along the river. Peoples of All Nations, an educational book edited by JA Hammerton and published by the Educational Book Company in London, features this remarkable photograph in its fourth volume dedicated to Georgia to Italy. It serves as a visual representation of India's rich cultural heritage for readers across Europe. The state barge not only represents luxury but also acts as a mode of transportation for the Maharaja and his entourage. This image captures both beauty and functionality seamlessly intertwined. GT Bookless' monochrome portrayal transports us into another time period where literature often painted vivid pictures like these within our minds. Through this print collector's lens, we are transported directly into Hindoostan (India) at that momentous point in history when maharajahs ruled over vast territories. Let this extraordinary piece take you on a journey through time as you explore the majesty and allure of Kashmirs royal capital from nearly a century ago.
