EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases the stunning Hindu Temples in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The colour litho technique used by Alfred Hugh Fisher brings out the intricate details of these architectural marvels, making them come alive on paper. Dating back to the early 20th century, this postcard offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Colombo. The image captures not only the temples but also provides a snapshot of daily life in this bustling city. Women can be seen going about their day, carrying out their tasks amidst the backdrop of these magnificent structures. The presence of British and Dutch influences is evident in this print as well. It serves as a reminder of Sri Lanka's colonial past and its position as an important port for trade during that time. The card itself holds historical significance, being part of London County Council's reward card collection. Through this image, we are transported to a different era - one where Asia was at the center of global attention and exploration. It symbolizes both unity and diversity as it depicts people from various backgrounds coming together in harmony within this sacred space. Overall, this print is not just a visual delight but also an invaluable piece that encapsulates history, culture, and artistry all in one frame.
