EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Ekka, outside Victoria Station, Bombay, India, c1900s (?)" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of colonial-era Mumbai. Captured by renowned photographers Underwood & Underwood, this stereoscopic card showcases a typical scene from early 20th century India. In the foreground stands an ekka - a traditional Indian carriage commonly pulled by a single horse. Its rustic charm is juxtaposed against the grandeur of Victoria Station, an architectural marvel that served as a hub for railway transportation during British rule. The station's imposing facade looms behind the ekka driver and his oxen companions who patiently await their next journey. The image captures not only the physical landscape but also offers glimpses into daily life in Bombay at that time. Men dressed in traditional attire can be seen going about their business on this busy street lined with buildings that reflect both British influence and local architecture. Underwood & Underwood's mastery of stereoscopic photography adds depth and dimension to this monochrome composition. As we gaze upon this print today, it serves as a poignant reminder of India's rich history under British Raj while celebrating its vibrant culture and enduring spirit.
