Delhi - View from a Bridge over the River Yamuna (circa 1920): A Timeless Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken circa 1920, offers a breathtaking view of Delhi from a bridge over the River Yamuna. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to explore the rich history and culture of India's vibrant capital city. The serene river, known as Jamuna in local folklore, meanders gently through the landscape, reflecting the golden hues of the setting sun. The banks of the river are dotted with ancient temples and peaceful retreats, providing a tranquil contrast to the bustling cityscape beyond. In the foreground, we see locals enjoying the riverbank, seeking respite from the heat of the day. Men and women, dressed in traditional Indian attire, sit under colorful parasols, while children play nearby. The scene exudes a sense of peace and harmony, as if frozen in time. The bridge, an engineering marvel of the era, connects the two banks of the river, symbolizing the unity and interconnectedness of the city. The view from the bridge offers a panoramic perspective of Delhi's diverse architecture, with the majestic red sandstone walls of the Old Fort in the distance and the modern buildings of the new city beyond. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, is a testament to the enduring beauty and charm of Delhi, inviting us to appreciate the city's rich history and the timeless connection between its people and the River Yamuna.
