EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic "Le Maison a Peshawur de Monsieur le General Avitabile" in Lugmanee, Khohistan. Created by James Rattray, this artwork showcases the architectural beauty of this historic house in Peshawar, India. The image transports us back to 1884 when colonialism was at its peak and the British Empire reigned supreme. The painting serves as a testament to the influence and power of General Paolo Avitabile, who served as Governor of Peshawar from 1838 to 1842. The house itself is a stunning example of colonial architecture with intricate details that reflect both Indian and European influences. Its grandeur stands tall against the backdrop of lush landscapes, creating an enchanting scene that captivates viewers. In this photograph, we see figures dotted around the building, perhaps indicating life within its walls during that era. It provides us with a glimpse into daily life during colonial times and invites us to imagine what it would have been like to reside in such an opulent residence. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also of the historical significance it holds. This photograph allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind these magnificent structures and their role in shaping our world's history.
