EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking photograph, titled "Taj Mahal-from the River, Late 1860s," captures the timeless beauty and grandeur of the iconic Taj Mahal in Agra, India. The image was taken by renowned British photographer Samuel Bourne during the nineteenth century. The Taj Mahal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the right bank of the Yamuna River in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. Commissioned by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, the monument is considered a masterpiece of Mughal architecture and is renowned for its symmetrical design, intricate decorative details, and the stunning reflection of the structure in the river. The photograph showcases the monument's impressive facade, with its distinctive dome and minarets, as well as the tranquil reflection of the building in the river. The image offers a unique perspective of the Taj Mahal, highlighting its beauty and historical significance, and transporting us back in time to the late 1800s. This photograph is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and serves as a testament to the enduring allure of this magnificent monument and the artistry of Samuel Bourne.
