EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back in time to the bustling city of Venice. The print, created by Samuel Edmund Waller in 1875, depicts a vibrant scene at the Piazza San Marco as travelers embark on their journey towards India. The image showcases an array of boats and gondolas floating along the picturesque waterways of Venice. Passengers eagerly await their departure, while pigeons gracefully fly overhead, adding an air of tranquility to the bustling atmosphere. The grandeur of Stazione della Strada Ferrata, the railway station, stands proudly in the background as a symbol of progress and modernity. This artwork beautifully captures the fusion between European and Asian cultures during this era. Indian passengers can be seen amidst Italian locals, showcasing diversity and cultural exchange. The presence of an Indian flag further emphasizes this connection between two continents. The print serves as a testament to transportation's role in bridging distant lands and fostering cultural understanding. It reminds us that travel has always been a means for exploration and discovery beyond geographical boundaries. With its intricate details and historical significance, "On the Way to India" invites viewers to reflect on our shared human experiences across different corners of the world.
