EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic snow-covered peaks of A. T. A. Chakrata in 1938. Located in the Dehradun district of Uttarakhand, India, Chakrata is a cantonment town with restricted access due to its military significance. It serves as the permanent garrison for the Special Frontier Force, an Indian Army unit comprised of ethnic Tibetans. In this image, we see the breathtaking Himalayan mountain range stretching across the horizon, showcasing nature's grandeur at its finest. The vibrant colors and tinted hues enhance the beauty of this landscape captured by Moorli Dhur & Sons from Ambala. Chakrata not only holds strategic importance but also offers a haven for travelers seeking solace amidst nature's splendor. Established in 1936, Hotel Snow View stands as one of three civilian hotels in Chakrata and provides visitors with an opportunity to immerse themselves in this picturesque setting. As we gaze upon this photograph from nearly a century ago, it transports us back to a time when technology was limited yet still capable of capturing such awe-inspiring scenes. This postcard-like print reminds us of India's rich geographical features and serves as a testament to our fascination with mountains that have stood tall for centuries. Let us cherish this glimpse into history while appreciating how these timeless landscapes continue to inspire awe and wonder today.
