EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 19th century photograph captures the essence of village life in Bengal, near Calcutta, Kolkata, India, during the 1860s. Taken by renowned British photographer Samuel Bourne, this image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rural past of this fascinating region. The scene is set in the countryside, where the lush green fields stretch out towards the horizon, dotted with the occasional tree or cluster of trees. In the foreground, a group of cattle graze peacefully in a pasture, their hides glistening in the sunlight. A solitary ox stands near a farm building, its massive form a testament to the strength and resilience of the animals that powered the agricultural economy of the time. A winding country road leads towards a traditional Bengali residence, its red-tiled roof and whitewashed walls standing proud against the blue sky. The village street is quiet, with no sign of modern transportation, save for a solitary bullock cart. The simple yet elegant architecture of the buildings, with their intricate wooden balconies and ornate doorways, speaks of a rich cultural heritage. The photograph is a reminder of a bygone era, when life moved at a slower pace, and the rhythms of agriculture and the changing seasons shaped the daily lives of people. The image invites us to reflect on the enduring traditions and customs that continue to define the rural communities of Bengal, even as the region transforms in the 21st century.
