Howrah Pontoon Bridge Calcutta India Hooghly River Boats Vtg. Photo 20thC.
This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows the Howrah pontoon bridge crossing the Hooghly River in Calcutta, India. Numerous boats are visible on the water and moored near the bridge, with people gathered on the muddy riverbank. This original pontoon bridge was opened in 1874 to connect Calcutta with the city of Howrah. It was a marvel of its time and served the bustling cities until it was replaced by the current Howrah Bridge in 1943.
