Mahatta & Co, Delhi

During 1930s and for a couple of more decades, the image of Kashmir that reached the outer world was majorly a product of a photo studio based in Srinagar called Mahatta & Co.


It was started in 1918 (1915?) by Amar Nath Mehta and Ram Chand Mehta on a houseboat on Jhelum river.
