EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting Railway station, from the Queens Garden in Delhi, India during the late 19th or early 20th century. The image showcases a harmonious blend of nature and architecture as it depicts a stunning railway station surrounded by lush greenery. Today known as Delhi Junction, this iconic station was constructed in 1900 and officially opened its doors to the public in 1903. The photograph beautifully portrays the grandeur of Indian architecture with intricate details adorning the building's facade. Towering over the landscape, it stands as a testament to India's rich cultural heritage. The vibrant colors of blooming shrubs add an extra touch of beauty to this picturesque scene. As one gazes at this historical snapshot, they are transported back in time to an era when trains were considered a symbol of progress and modernization. This railway station served as a vital hub for transportation, connecting people from different corners of India. The image also offers glimpses into daily life during British colonial rule, commonly referred to as the British Raj. It is reminiscent of Hindoostan's past glory under imperial rule while highlighting how public transport played a crucial role in shaping society. Preserved through time on a lantern slide, this remarkable print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and valuable documentation of Delhi's history. It allows us to appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also reflects upon our ever-evolving relationship with transportation and open spaces within cities like Delhi.
