The Amirs Garden, Jalalabad - A Glimpse into History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1878, during the Second Afghan War. Lieutenant Vincent Eyre's lens captures a mesmerizing view of The Amirs Garden from its entrance in Jalalabad. This historical image is part of John Burke's collection, who accompanied the troops as an unofficial photographer. The photograph showcases the grandeur and tranquility of The Amirs Garden, situated just west of Jalalabad. Originally planted by Zahiruddin Muhammad Babur, the first Moghul Emperor in the 16th century, these gardens hold immense cultural significance. In this frame, we see two large tanks or reservoirs and a circular summer house nestled amidst lush greenery. As our eyes wander through this picturesque scene, we can almost imagine strolling along the garden paths that were once frequented by emperors and nobles alike. The sentry standing guard at the entrance adds a touch of realism to this timeless snapshot. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - an era when conflict intertwined with beauty; where nature coexisted harmoniously with human endeavors. Let this image serve as a reminder of history's complexities and how even amidst turmoil and war, places like The Amirs Garden stood tall as symbols of resilience and serenity.
