EDITORS COMMENTS
A captivating image from the late 19th century, this photograph captures a bustling scene at a river ghat in India, likely in the city of Calcutta, now known as Kolkata. The image, taken around the 1880s, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Indian population during this era. The ghat, a popular bathing and washing area along the riverbanks, is filled with men, women, and children of various ethnicities, engaged in their morning rituals. The vibrant colors of their traditional attire contrast sharply against the muted tones of the stone ghat and the calm, reflective waters of the river. The streets leading to the ghat are filled with pedestrian traffic, as people go about their daily routines. Horse-drawn carts and rickshaws can be seen transporting goods and passengers through the crowded streets. The urban landscape is a mix of the old and the new, with traditional Indian architecture coexisting alongside modern buildings and transportation. The photograph is an ethnographic record of the rich cultural heritage of India during the 19th century. Taken during the era of colonial rule, it offers a unique perspective into the lives of the indigenous population and their daily practices. The image is an albumen print, a popular photographic process during this time, and is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the history and evolution of urban India during the late 19th century.
