The image showcases the neo-classical architecture of the hospital, with its imposing columns, intricate carvings, and sprawling grounds. The hospital's impressive facade is a testament to the rich history and heritage of Kolkata, once known as the 'City of Palaces.' The Medical College Hospital has played a pivotal role in shaping the medical landscape of India, producing some of the finest medical professionals in the country.

The photograph captures the hospital in all its glory, with the hustle and bustle of the city in the background, reminding us of the vital role it continues to play in the lives of the people of Kolkata and beyond.
