James Atkinson er lekhay: "Dacca was for more than half a century the capital of Bengal, and continued to be enriched by the multitudes which crowded to the courts of its Governors. The stupendous remains of gateways, roads, bridges and other public works, which present themselves on every side, sufficiently prove the former grandeur of the magnificence of the city."

" part of the city of Dacca is seen in the distance, under an effect of light, and shade which was studied on the spot. The far-off white houses of the European inhabitants, when illuminated by a partial gleam of sun-light, form a sparkling contrast to the broad masses and dark foliage of the fore-ground, and the romantic ruins of the bridge."
