EDITORS COMMENTS
The photograph captures a momentous occasion in the history of British India - the Farewell Dinner to Lord Ellenborough, held at The Town Hall in Calcutta in 1844. Lord Ellenborough, also known as Edward Law, was the Governor-General of India from 1842 to 1844 and played a significant role during his tenure. In this print, we see an impressive floral arch constructed as a tribute to Lord Ellenborough. The archway stands tall against the backdrop of The Town Hall's magnificent architecture. This architectural feature symbolizes the grandeur and power associated with British colonial rule. The image reflects the era of imperialism and colonialism that characterized British India during the nineteenth century. It provides us with a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle enjoyed by those in positions of authority within the British Raj. Published in "Illustrated London News" in 1844, this engraving offers us valuable insight into historical events through visual documentation. It serves as a reminder of how newspapers played an essential role in disseminating information during that time. As we admire this print by an unknown creator, let us reflect on its significance - not only as a piece of art but also as a testament to an era defined by imperial ambitions and cultural exchange between Britain and its colonies.
