EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photograph taken in Nowshera, India between 1916-1917, we are presented with a truly bizarre sight - a cow standing proudly on the roof of a building. This image captures the essence of rural life in early 20th century India. The cow, considered sacred in Indian culture, stands as an emblematic symbol of divinity and blessings. Its presence atop this building evokes a sense of wonder and mystery. The surrounding people seem both amazed and reverent towards this unusual occurrence. As we gaze at the photograph, our eyes are drawn to the headdress worn by one individual nearby. Adorned with a turban, it signifies their cultural identity within this diverse country. The monochrome effect adds depth to the image, emphasizing its historical significance. It transports us back to an era when buildings were simpler yet held great importance within their communities. This print is not just about capturing an extraordinary moment; it encapsulates the rich tapestry of Indian traditions and beliefs that have endured for centuries. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernization and urban development, there are still pockets where ancient customs thrive. Created by an unknown photographer, this print from Heritage Images allows us to glimpse into a world where animals roam freely across rooftops while people look on with awe-struck expressions. It invites us to ponder upon the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature in times gone by.
