EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the Hindu Ratha-Yatra, or Chariot Festival, in India during the late 1890s. The image presents a vibrant and bustling scene of a large crowd of people gathered around a magnificent festival car, adorned with intricate decorations and ornate carvings. The car, believed to be pulled by devotees, is a symbol of the deity Jagannath, or Lord of the Universe, and his siblings, Balabhadra and Subhadra. The Ratha-Yatra, also known as the Chariot Festival or the Jagannath Rath Yatra, is an ancient Hindu tradition that has been practiced in India for over a thousand years. It is a significant event in the religious calendar of the eastern Indian state of Odisha, where the festival originated. During the festival, the deities are taken on a procession from their temple in Puri to the Gundicha Temple in a grand chariot. The journey is believed to purify the deities and bring blessings to the devotees. The festival is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted beliefs of the Indian people. The photograph provides a glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on this historical and traditional practice. The crowd of people, dressed in their finest attire, are filled with devotion and excitement as they prepare to witness the passage of the deities in their chariot. The image is a reminder of the enduring power of faith and the strength of community that continues to shape the lives of people in India and beyond.
