EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Delhi Durbar, 1903" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image captures the Maharaja of Patiala, ruler of the princely state of Patiala in Punjab, India, as he salutes the Viceroy amidst his warriors. This eleven-year-old Maharaja, Bhupinder Singh, would later become renowned for his extravagant lifestyle and passion for cricket. Australian artist Mortimer Menpes skillfully immortalizes this scene from the early 20th century British Raj era. The photograph showcases not only the grandeur and opulence associated with royalty but also highlights the military might and colonial presence during that time. The soldiers surrounding the young Maharaja symbolize both power and loyalty to their rulers. Clad in traditional Sikh turbans and uniforms, they represent a proud part of Indian culture while serving under British command. This historic snapshot offers a glimpse into an era marked by colonialism and its impact on South Asia. It serves as a reminder of India's rich history and its complex relationship with foreign powers. Published by Adam and Charles Black in London in 1903, this print is now available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection. It allows viewers to appreciate not just the artistic talent behind it but also provides valuable insights into an important chapter in Indian history.
