    The firm of Johnston & Hoffman opened in Calcutta in 1883, its employees being, for

    the most part, disgruntled members of Bourne & Shepherd.Whereas Bourne & Shepherd
    specialised in views of the Himalayas, Johnston & Hoffman concentrated on views of
    the teak and jute industries, not to mention a carefully composed series of
    photographs of Indian monuments. The firm's catalogue at one time listed over a
    thousand such photographs and many of them are still used as standard illustrations
    of Indian architecture by the 'Encyclopaedia Britannica'. Another interesting
    figure to appear on the scene in
