This is The 1911 Chennai Central Pen & charcoal painting. It is the main railway terminus in the City of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

It is now an iconic landmark of Chennai city, and maybe the whole of South India. It initially started with 4 platforms, today they spread it into an astounding 17 platforms.

Another British architect Robert Chisholm added the famous clock tower to the building that solemnly watches the world go by. Chisholm had pioneered the Indo-Saracenic style architecture.
