EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph, titled "Taj Mahal-from the River, Late 1860s," captures the timeless beauty and grandeur of the iconic Taj Mahal in Agra, India. The image was taken by renowned British photographer Samuel Bourne during the late 1860s, a pivotal period in the history of photography. The Taj Mahal, an architectural marvel and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is depicted here as a mausoleum set against the serene backdrop of the river. The Mughal monument, built in the 17th century as a symbol of love and devotion, is shown in all its glory, with its intricate facade and white marble exterior reflecting in the calm waters. The photograph, an albumen print, offers a unique perspective of the Taj Mahal, showcasing not only its architectural brilliance but also its setting in the geographical landscape of Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. The image transports us back in time, providing a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Hindustan and the Islamic world. Today, this photograph is part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), serving as a testament to the enduring allure of the Taj Mahal and the art of photography in the 19th century.
