EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 19th century photograph captures the haunting and profound scene of the Burning Ghat in Benares, Varanasi, India. The image, taken between the 1870s and 1900s, portrays the ancient Hindu tradition of cremation along the banks of the sacred River Ganges. The ghat, a series of steps leading down to the water, is a place of pilgrimage for many Hindus who believe that dying and being cremated in Benares ensures salvation and liberation from the cycle of rebirth. In the photograph, a group of people, mostly adults, gather around the pyre as they perform the final rites for the deceased. The building in the background, with its intricate architecture and ornate details, is a residential structure typical of the area, providing a stark contrast to the raw and primal energy of the burning ghat. A woman, dressed in traditional attire, stands at the edge of the ghat, watching the scene unfold. The image also reveals the bustling urban landscape of Benares, with vehicles and watercraft making their way along the busy streets and roads. The Burning Ghat, with its rich history and cultural significance, continues to be an essential part of the city's heritage and a powerful symbol of the enduring traditions of India.
