DESCRIPTION:Despite arriving in British India in 1840\, it was only in 188
 4 that Portuguese-held Goa got its first professional photography studio: 
 Souza & Paul. This studio extensively photo-documented Goa in the late nin
 eteenth and early twentieth centuries\, partnering with state authorities.
  In examining Souza & Paul’s archival photographs\, this lecture inverts
  the gaze of colonial visuality\; although the striking mix of European in
 fluenced architecture is meant to be the punctum of Old Goa’s late-ninet
 eenth century photographs\, it is the negative spaces - which hide the rui
 nation of the city - that become its true punctum. The late-colonial state
  used the camera as a logistical tool\, obscuring the ruination of Old Goa
  and the lack of new development. In the absence of new monuments\, the ad
 ministration utilised photography to showcase leftover monuments of the gr
 eat imperial past to underscore colonial longevity so as to hold on to the
 ir powers during the era of decoloniality.
