EDITORS COMMENTS
Fort Lahore, Lahore, Punjab, British India (circa 1910s) This photograph offers a glimpse into the colonial past of Lahore, Pakistan, during the British Raj era. The image showcases Fort Lahore, a historic fortification that dates back to the Mughal period, with a part of the bustling city spread out below. The imposing fort walls, adorned with intricate designs and towering bastions, stand tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. Situated in the top right corner of the image, the 6th Devons Regiment bungalow is marked with an 'X'. The British military played a significant role in the administration and defense of the region during the colonial period. The presence of the regiment's bungalow within the fort's walls underscores the military's influence and control over the area. The photograph also reveals the lush greenery that once thrived in Lahore, with trees dotting the landscape and providing a stark contrast to the stone structures. The large, imposing buildings and the winding roads create an intricate web of urban development that reflects the city's rich history and cultural diversity. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the colonial era and the complex relationship between the British Empire and the people of Lahore, Punjab.
