EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the majestic Palace of the Maharajah in Kunshinagar, located in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. Taken in 1965 by renowned photographer Quilici Folco, this image captures not only a stunning architectural masterpiece but also provides a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of this region. The photograph showcases intricate details of the palace's door, building elements, decoration, and sections. The architecture is awe-inspiring, with its grandeur evident in every aspect. The walls stand tall and sturdy, reflecting both military and defensive features that were once crucial for protection. As we observe closely, we notice people passing through the gateway adorned with turbans on their heads – an intriguing blend of civilian and military headdress. Their fashion choices reflect both religious beliefs and personal style preferences. This snapshot offers valuable insight into Indian culture at that time. Moreover, this print serves as more than just a documentation of architecture or clothing styles; it encapsulates anthropology, ethnography, folklore - providing glimpses into daily life along this road avenue bustling with activity. Quilici Folco's lens beautifully captures not only the physical structure but also reveals aspects such as population diversity among Indians and Asiatic populations residing here. It reminds us how these buildings are not merely bricks and mortar but living testaments to human civilization. This remarkable photograph allows us to travel back in time to witness an era when tradition intertwined seamlessly with modernity within one frame. It invites contemplation about our own place within history while appreciating the beauty found within different cultures around the world.
