EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Bazaar in Bombay, India, 1847" takes us back to the bustling streets of Mumbai in the 19th century. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Kirchner, who beautifully captures the architectural features of the market with its canopied balconies above. The illustration originates from "The History of China and India" by Miss Corner, published by Dean and Co in London in 1847. It provides a vivid glimpse into daily life during that era. The scene showcases a vibrant town filled with people engaged in shopping and trade activities. One cannot help but notice the religious influence present as well. A church stands tall amidst other buildings, symbolizing Christianity's presence within this diverse Indian landscape. This juxtaposition highlights the harmonious coexistence of different religions within Bombay. Kirchner's attention to detail is evident through his intricate engraving work which brings out every aspect of this lively street scene - from the busy lanes to numerous shops lining both sides of the road. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in India's history unfold before our eyes. Through Kirchner's artistry and Miss Corner's documentation, we gain a deeper understanding of how commerce thrived alongside religion within Bombay during that period. This print serves as a valuable historical artifact allowing us to appreciate not only Kirchner's talent but also providing insight into everyday life at one point in time for future generations to
