EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Town and fort of Agra, 1847" takes us back to the enchanting era of 19th-century India. Created by the talented artist Robinson, this illustration was featured in the renowned book "The History of China and India" written by Miss Corner and published by Dean and Co in London. The scene depicted showcases the magnificent town and fort of Agra, nestled along the banks of the Yamuna River. The river serves as a vital water transport route for boats gracefully gliding through its waters. The landscape is adorned with impressive buildings that reflect both Indian architecture and British influence. A prominent feature within this picturesque setting is none other than the iconic Agra Fort, also known as Red Fort due to its striking red sandstone walls. Its grandeur stands tall against the monochrome backdrop, symbolizing strength and resilience. Thomas Robinson's expert engraving beautifully captures every intricate detail of this historical location. It transports viewers back in time to experience firsthand what life was like during this period in India's rich history. This print holds immense value for geography enthusiasts as it offers a glimpse into Agra's geographical features such as rivers Jumna (Jamuna) or Yamuna. Moreover, it pays homage to notable figures involved in its creation - Miss Julia Corner, Solomon Lovechild, Thomas Parley - all contributing their expertise alongside B Clayton who played a significant role behind-the-scenes. Appreciate this remarkable piece not only for its artistic brilliance
