EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1890s, showcases the serene and picturesque view of the River Jhelum, also known as Jehlam, as it flows through the lush landscapes of India. The river, which holds historical significance as it was a major trade route during ancient times, is framed by the majestic mountains in the background, their peaks reaching towards the clear blue sky. The tranquil waters reflect the surrounding beauty, creating a mirror image of the towering trees and the gentle undulations of the terrain. Boats can be seen anchored along the banks, their sails rolled up, adding a touch of local life to the scene. The calmness of the water, punctuated only by the occasional ripple, creates a sense of peace and tranquility, inviting one to imagine the serenity of this scene in the days gone by. The photograph, taken during the late 1800s, offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of the region. The Indian subcontinent, with its diverse landscapes, people, and traditions, has long been a source of fascination for travelers and historians alike. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and allure of this part of Asia, and transports us back in time, allowing us to experience a moment of history through the lens of a camera from over a century ago.
