Historical Colonial Survey Map of Calcutta
This exceptional antique lithograph represents the comprehensive historical survey of Calcutta, India, executed between 1847 and 1849 by civil engineer Frederick Walter Simms. Published originally for British colonial administration, this detailed cartographic document traces the highly dense nineteenth-century urban core, public squares, and intricate neighborhood street grids of the city when it served as a major global trade hub.
Topographical Details and Strategic Waterfront Landmarks
The vintage panoramic layout features an extensive perspective of the prominent Hooghly River winding along the city border, documenting the early ship docks, ferry channels, and coastal typography. The cartography highlights crucial imperial infrastructure, including a prominent rendering of the star-shaped Fort William fortress, native civic markets, and official municipal zones essential for academic research and framing.
