EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era in Srinagar, Kashmir, India. Taken during the late 19th or early 20th century, it showcases an old bridge that stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this enchanting region. The wooden bridge gracefully spans across a serene river, its weathered planks telling stories of countless footsteps that have traversed its path over time. The vibrant colors of the lantern slide bring life to this timeless scene, transporting us back to an age where water transport was essential for both trade and daily life. In this snapshot of history, we catch a glimpse of people going about their daily routines. A group of men can be seen on boats navigating through the calm waters beneath the bridge. Their presence adds depth and character to the image, reminding us that human connection has always been an integral part of any landscape. As we admire this photograph, we are transported not only to a specific location but also to a particular moment in time – one where British influence loomed large over India under their colonial rule known as "the Raj". This print serves as a valuable historical document showcasing how geography and transportation shaped societies during this period. Preserved with care by The Print Collector, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate and reflect upon our shared past while marveling at the beauty captured within its frame.
