EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Benares (engraving)" takes us on a visual journey to 19th century India. The image showcases the bustling river of Benares, offering a glimpse into the vibrant travel scene of that era. Boats of various sizes and shapes gracefully navigate through the waters, serving as essential means of transport for both locals and visitors alike. The engraving captures the essence of Indian culture with its depiction of traditional attire worn by passengers aboard these boats. The rich diversity is evident as we see Indians from different regions coexisting harmoniously in this lively setting. This snapshot provides a window into Asian life during this time period, highlighting not only the beauty but also the interconnectedness between cultures. As we delve deeper into this historical moment, it becomes apparent that General Grant's voyage around the world served as an inspiration for John Russell Young's book "Around the World with General Grant". This engraving was featured in Young's publication, adding depth and context to his narrative. Through this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how transportation played a crucial role in connecting people across continents. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our unyielding desire to explore new horizons.
