EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Calcutta in 1905, showcasing the magnificent Grand Hotel that still stands tall today as the Oberoi Grand in Kolkata, India. The image captures a snapshot of an era when transportation was rapidly evolving, with cars becoming a common sight on the city's roads. The sepia-toned photograph exudes a sense of nostalgia and transports us to a bygone time. The grandeur of the hotel is evident in its majestic architecture, standing proudly amidst other buildings lining Chowringhee Road. It serves as a testament to Calcutta's rich history and cultural heritage. As we gaze at this monochrome scene, we can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages passing by and imagine the hustle and bustle of daily life in early 20th-century India. This print offers a unique perspective on how cities evolve over time while retaining their essence. It is fascinating to witness how this iconic landmark has stood strong for over a century, witnessing countless stories unfold within its walls. This image not only showcases architectural beauty but also symbolizes progress and transformation within one dynamic city. Whether you are an admirer of Indian history or simply appreciate vintage aesthetics, this print from Heritage Images allows you to own a piece of Calcutta's past – an exquisite reminder that some things endure through time while continuing to shape our present-day experiences.
