EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Kandy, Sri Lanka's picturesque drive round the lake. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image is a part of a private collection and was featured as an illustration in The Hundred Best Views of Ceylon around 1900. The scene showcases the mesmerizing view of Kandy's serene lake surrounded by lush greenery and majestic mountains. The calm waters reflect the surrounding landscape, creating a mirror-like effect that adds to its allure. This photograph perfectly encapsulates the tranquility and natural splendor that can be found in this Asian paradise. Kandy, known for its rich cultural heritage and historical significance, has long been a popular destination for travelers seeking to immerse themselves in Sri Lanka's vibrant culture. This image invites viewers to imagine themselves taking a leisurely drive along the winding road encircling the lake, soaking up every breathtaking vista along the way. With meticulous attention to detail and composition, this photograph exemplifies both technical skill and artistic vision. It serves as a timeless reminder of Kandy's enduring charm while also paying homage to early photography techniques. Whether you are an avid lover of photography or simply captivated by exotic destinations like Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), this stunning black-and-white print offers a glimpse into another time and place – inviting you to embark on your own visual journey through history.
