EDITORS COMMENTS
Delhi, The Ferozeshah Kotela, Late 1860s: A Glimpse into the Past This black and white albumen print, titled 'Delhi, The Ferozeshah Kotela, Late 1860s,' is a stunning photograph by the renowned British photographer Samuel Bourne. The image transports us back in time to the late 19th century, offering a breathtaking view of the historic Ferozeshah Kotela in Delhi, India. Ferozeshah Kotela, also known as Feroz Shah's Fort or Feroz Shah Kotla, is an ancient fortification located in the heart of Delhi. The fort was built in 1356 by Sultan Feroz Shah Tughlaq and is believed to have served as the capital city of the Delhi Sultanate during his reign. Bourne's photograph captures the grandeur and majesty of the fort's facade, with its intricate architectural details and timeworn ruins. The fort's massive stone walls, punctuated by towering bastions and ornate arches, stand proudly against the backdrop of a barren, sandy landscape. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of India, which has endured through the centuries. The photograph's monochrome palette adds to its timeless quality, emphasizing the stark beauty of the ruins and the vast, open landscape. The image is a testament to Bourne's skill as a photographer, as he expertly captures the essence of the scene and transports us back in time to a bygone era. This photograph is an invaluable addition to any collection of historic images of India, and a must-see for anyone interested in the history and culture of this fascinating country. The image is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
