EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the grandeur of The Victoria Terminus in Bombay, India, as it stood in the late 1930s. Opened in 1888 and officially inaugurated by the Governor of Bombay, Sire Frederich Sykes, in 1929, this historic terminus served as the primary hub for the main lines of the Great Indian Peninsular Railway. The Victoria Terminus, a masterpiece of Indo-Saracenic architecture, was designed by renowned architect F.W. Stevens and is a testament to the rich cultural fusion that characterized British colonial India. Its intricate stonework, ornate arches, and majestic domes reflect the harmonious blend of Western and Eastern architectural styles. The terminus, now known as Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST), has been a symbol of Bombay's (Mumbai's) transportation history for over a century. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004, recognizing its architectural and historical significance. In this photograph, the Victoria Terminus bustles with activity, as passengers and porters move about, trains come and go, and the sounds of the bustling city fill the air. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the rich history of India's railways and its vibrant urban centers. This photograph, taken in the late 1930s, is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Victoria Terminus and its role in shaping the transportation landscape of Bombay and India as a whole. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of architecture, transportation, or the colonial era in India.
