EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning view of Calcutta, India, taken in 1572. The image is accompanied by smaller views of Ormuz at the entrance of the Persian Gulf, Canonor in India, and the Portuguese fortress of El Mina in West Africa. Hand-coloured engraving adds an exquisite touch to this historical piece. The photograph transports us back to a time when colonialism was at its peak and expeditions were undertaken to explore new territories. The elevated view allows us to take in the magnificent coastline and citadel that overlooks Calcutta. Ships can be seen sailing along the water transport routes as they navigate through these exotic lands. Intriguingly, amidst this bustling scene lies an elephant - a symbol of power and majesty - reminding us of the rich cultural heritage that existed during this period. This image captures not only the military fortifications but also highlights natural spaces where animals roamed freely. As we delve into history through this hand-coloured engraving, we are reminded of significant events such as colonisation and trade routes established by European powers like Portugal. It serves as a reminder of how our world has evolved over time. This print from Fine Art Finder provides us with a glimpse into late sixteenth-century India and other regions influenced by colonial powers. It is truly a remarkable piece that encapsulates both beauty and historical significance for all who appreciate art and history alike.
