General view of the residential area is pictured during dusk at Jodhpur in Rajasthan
A general view of the residential area is pictured during dusk at Jodhpur in Rajasthan, April 5, 2015. Jodhpur, also known as the blue city in the desert Indian state of Rajasthan, which residents say originally, was used to show where the highest caste of priestly Hindus live, who wanted to set them apart from the rest of the population. Later the rest of the population followed suit. Another reason for the city to be blue is to keep the buildings cool during the summers, local residents said. Picture taken April 5, 2015.

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of Jodhpur, also known as the blue city, during dusk in Rajasthan. The image showcases a general view of the residential area, with its stunning blue buildings standing out against the backdrop of the desert landscape. According to local residents, this unique color scheme has historical and practical significance. Originally used to distinguish where the highest caste of priestly Hindus resided, it eventually became a trend followed by the rest of the population. Additionally, painting buildings in shades of blue helps keep them cool during scorching summers. The photograph exudes a sense of tranquility and serenity as evening descends upon Jodhpur. The soft light illuminates each building's intricate details while casting long shadows on narrow streets below. As day transitions into night, one can imagine residents going about their daily lives within these vibrant walls. Adnan Abidi's masterful composition perfectly encapsulates both the architectural charm and cultural heritage that make Jodhpur an enchanting destination for travelers from around the world. This image serves as a reminder not only of Rajasthan's rich history but also its ability to seamlessly blend tradition with modernity.
