EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures the chilling moment of the discovery of Tipu Sahib's body at Seringapatam in 1799. Tipu Sultan, also known as the Tiger of Mysore, was a formidable ruler of the Kingdom of Mysore in India during the 18th century. His death marked the end of an era filled with power struggles and conflicts. In this illustration from Hutchinson's History of Nations, published in 1915, we see the aftermath of a fierce battle that led to Tipu Sahib's demise. The image conveys a sense of horror and surprise as his lifeless body is found among the ruins. The traditional costume he wears serves as a stark reminder of his once mighty reign. Tipu Sultan was known for his bravery and leadership skills, earning him respect and fear from both allies and enemies alike. His death left a void in Indian history that would be remembered for generations to come. As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are transported back to a time when kingdoms rose and fell with each passing day. It serves as a poignant reminder of the fleeting nature of power and glory, leaving us with a feeling of solemnity for those who came before us.
