EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and tranquility of Peshawar Barracks in British India, circa 1910. Located in the heart of Peshawar Cantonment, this imposing structure served as large accommodation for the British military personnel and their families stationed in the region during the colonial era. The image showcases the impressive architecture of the barracks, with its symmetrical design, red-tiled roofs, and tall, arched windows. The meticulously manicured garden surrounding the building adds to its charm, with lush greenery, blooming flowers, and a serene water pool reflecting the clear blue sky. Soldiers and troops can be seen in the foreground, engaged in their daily routines, adding a sense of authenticity to the scene. The image also reveals a small puddle in the garden, likely from a recent rain shower, adding a touch of natural beauty to the otherwise formal setting. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of British colonial rule in India and the daily life of the military community in Peshawar Cantonment.
