EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Hastings House in 1924. The architectural masterpiece, located in Bengal Presidency, stands as a testament to the colonial era of British India. Its facade exudes an air of elegance and sophistication, reflecting the influence of both eighteenth-century design and early twentieth-century aesthetics. The image is sourced from Lord Curzon's renowned publication, "British Government in India". Published by Cassell and Company Ltd in 1925, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and legacy of British rule in India. Lord Curzon of Kedleston, a prominent figure during that time period, provides valuable insights into the workings of the British Raj. As we delve into this monochrome photograph, we are transported back to an era marked by imperialism and colonialism. The driveway leading up to Hastings House sets the stage for its grandeur while hinting at its secluded nature within Belvedere Estate. Although created by an unknown artist or photographer, this print beautifully captures every intricate detail of Warren Hastings' former residence. It serves as a reminder not only of his significant role as Governor-General but also showcases how architecture can reflect power dynamics within society. With each glance at this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection curated by The Print Collector, we are reminded of Britain's impact on Indian literature, arts, and government during that tumultuous period between the 18th century and 1920s.
