EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print depicts the breathtaking views of The Wynaad Goldfields in Southern India during the nineteenth century. The focal point of the image is Needle Arch Mountain, a natural wonder with its distinctive needle-like shape jutting out from the undulating countryside. The mountain, located in the picturesque region of Wynaad, was a significant site for the discovery and mining of gold in the late 1800s. The distant view of Needle Arch Mountain is captured in intricate detail in this engraving, which showcases the mountain's majestic beauty and the surrounding landscape's rich history. The undulating countryside, dotted with lush greenery and rolling hills, adds to the serene and idyllic setting. The gold mines, once a bustling hub of activity, are now a testament to the region's historical significance. The Wynaad Goldfields, located in the present-day Wayanad district of Kerala, were a vital source of gold for the British during the colonial era. The gold mines were operational between 1876 and 1886, and the precious metal was exported to various parts of the world. The mining activities brought significant economic growth to the region and left an indelible mark on its history. This print, created in the late 1800s, is a fascinating glimpse into the past and offers a glimpse into the rich history of The Wynaad Goldfields. The image's intricate details and captivating composition make it a must-have for history buffs, collectors, and anyone with an appreciation for the natural beauty and historical significance of Southern India.
