EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Entrance to the Pagoda of Conjeveram; Notes on the Ancient Temples of India,' dates back to the 1870s. The image is taken from 'Illustrated Travels' by H.W. Bates, published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London around 1880. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and architectural grandeur of ancient India. The image captures the entrance to a temple, likely the Gopuram or gateway to the Pagoda of Conjeveram, located in the city of Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, India. The pyramidal structure, a common feature of Dravidian architecture, is adorned with intricate carvings and sculptures, showcasing the artistic prowess of the time. The temple complex is surrounded by lush greenery, adding to the scenic beauty of the location. The photograph also features a few figures in the background, adding a sense of scale and activity to the image. The image provides a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the religious and cultural practices of ancient Hindustan. The photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of India's ancient temples and the importance of preserving their history for future generations. The photographer of this image remains unknown, but the image itself is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or those interested in the arts, architecture, and cultural heritage of India.
