EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in history as King George V and Queen Mary, the King Emperor and Queen Empress of India, present themselves to their subjects during the Coronation Durbar in Delhi on December 12, 1911. The Durbar, or royal court, was held to mark the formal coronation of King George V as the Emperor of India, following his declaration of Proclamation of 1909, which transferred the sovereignty of India from Queen Victoria to her son. The image shows the royal couple seated on the dais at Coronation Park, surrounded by an array of Indian princes and nobles, all dressed in their finest robes and adorned with jewels. The King and Queen, dressed in their imperial regalia, including the imperial crowns and ermine robes, exude an air of authority and majesty. The scene is one of grandeur and splendor, reflecting the British Raj's imperial might and the colonial power dynamics of the time. The Coronation Durbar was a significant event in the history of the British Empire, symbolizing the formal transfer of power from one monarch to another and reaffirming the British rule in India. The photograph captures the moment of this historical transfer, with the Indian subjects looking on in awe and reverence, as they bear witness to the formal investiture of their new rulers. The image is a testament to the complex and intricate relationships between the British monarchy, the Indian princes, and the Indian people during the colonial era.
