EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Tank at the Back of the Dargah, Ajmere" transports us to a bygone era in Rajasthan, India. Taken around 1880 and published in A. H. Hallam Murray's book "The High-Road of Empire" in 1905, this image captures the essence of a serene day in the countryside. In this scenic outdoor setting, we see a group of men gathered near a water tank. The vibrant colors and rich details bring to life the landscape surrounding them. The steps leading up to the shrine add an element of mystery and intrigue to this picturesque location. As we delve into this photograph from the late 19th century, we are reminded of India's connection with British colonialism during that time period. This image serves as a visual representation of the British Empire's influence on Hindoostan (India) and its cultural heritage. Alexander Henry Hallam Murray skillfully captured not only the physical beauty but also conveyed an underlying concept through his watercolor technique. His talent shines through as he masterfully depicts every detail within this landscape. "The Tank at the Back of the Dargah, Ajmere" is more than just a photograph; it is a window into history and an invitation to explore both Indian culture and British imperialistic influences during that era.
