EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Victoria Terminus in Bombay, India during the late 19th century. The image, taken by unknown creator and published by L Boulanger in Paris, is a part of the Inde Anglaise series that beautifully captures sites and landscapes of English India. The Victoria Terminus stands tall as a symbol of British architecture and influence during the era of the British Raj. Its grand Victorian Gothic design dominates the landscape, reflecting both power and elegance. The vibrant colors bring life to this historic railway station, which served as a vital transportation hub connecting various parts of Hindoostan. The print highlights not only the architectural beauty but also provides a glimpse into daily life outside its walls. The bustling street surrounding Victoria Terminus reveals a snapshot of Indian town life in the 19th century. People from all walks of life can be seen going about their day amidst horse-drawn carriages and early forms of transport. Bourne & Shepherd's expertise in capturing such intricate details is evident through this photograph's composition and clarity. Their mastery allows us to travel back in time to experience an era when Bombay was transforming into Mumbai under British rule. This historical print serves as a valuable reminder of our shared heritage while celebrating both Indian culture and British colonial history within one frame.
