EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the haunting site of the infamous "Black Hole" in Calcutta, India. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases a significant historical event that occurred within these walls. The Black Hole of Calcutta refers to a small prison cell where British prisoners were held captive overnight on June 20,1756. The image portrays a sense of mystery and darkness as it transports us back to that fateful night. The composition highlights the dilapidated state of the building, with its crumbling walls and barred windows serving as reminders of the horrors that took place here centuries ago. This photograph is part of a private collection and was featured in C. B. Burrows' book "Glimpses of India" published in 1895. It serves as both a visual record and an illustration for readers seeking insights into Indian history. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the resilience and strength displayed by those who endured such hardships during colonial times. It also prompts us to reflect on how far society has come since then. Through photography's lens, we can capture moments frozen in time like this one – moments that continue to shape our understanding of history and culture today.
