A propos de cet article

Located in the state of Uttar Pradesh, it holds immense religious and cultural significance for Hindus. Benares is situated on the banks of the holy River Ganges and is considered one of the seven sacred cities in Hinduism. The city is renowned for its ghats, which are steps leading down to the river. These ghats serve as important sites for religious rituals, bathing, and cremation ceremonies. One of the most famous and iconic ghats in Benares is the Dashashwamedh Ghat, where the Ganga Aarti (a ritual of worship) takes place every evening. The aarti involves the chanting of prayers, lighting of lamps, and offering of flowers to the river, creating a mesmerizing and spiritual atmosphere. Image Size: 7 1/2 x 5 ins. Overall Size including text and borders : 10 1/2 x 7 Ins. CONDITION: Full page print. Blank on the back. Clear and sharp with beautiful detail. As scanned. This beautiful print would look great matted and framed. Or an art supply store can provide you with a selection of frames for old art treasures. NOTE THE FOLLOWING BEFORE YOU PURCHASE: This is a GENUINE ANTIQUE VINTAGE 1880s PRINT. It is NOT a modern reproduction, ie. a laser scan, photocopy, etc. It is the original from the antique or vintage atlas or book publication. This print was published on the date mentioned, or circa the date mentioned at the top of the page. The print I have for sale, like many antique vintage prints and maps that you see online, originate from an antique vintage book or atlas publication. The publication may not always be known. If you have any questions, emails are welcome.
