EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour print takes us back to the early 20th century, capturing the essence of Zoological Gardens in Calcutta. The image, taken by an English photographer, showcases a moment frozen in time within this lush botanical haven. With towering trees as its backdrop, the scene exudes tranquility and natural beauty. The postcard-like quality of this photograph adds a touch of nostalgia, reminding us of a bygone era when such mementos were cherished keepsakes. It offers a glimpse into the British Raj and their influence on India's rich cultural heritage during that period. The Zoological Gardens itself is depicted as an oasis amidst the bustling cityscape of Calcutta. Its significance lies not only in providing entertainment but also serving as a hub for scientific exploration and research. This image hints at the intersection between botany and zoology - two branches of science that converge within these gardens. As we admire this snapshot from history, it serves as a reminder of how photography has long been intertwined with scientific methods and documentation. Through images like these, we gain insights into Indian culture while celebrating Asia's diverse natural wonders. This particular print is part of a private collection, preserved for future generations to appreciate both its artistic value and historical importance. Let it transport you to another time and place where nature reigns supreme amidst urban landscapes – where serenity can be found even within bustling cities like Calcutta.
