EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Deccan British War Hospital in Poona, Maharashtra, India, during the tumultuous 1910s. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the profound impact of the First World War on the Indian subcontinent and the British Empire. The grand edifice, with its imposing arches and majestic dome, stands as a testament to the architectural prowess of the colonial era. The hospital, now known as the Armed Forces Medical College in Pune, was originally established to cater to the medical needs of the British soldiers and their families stationed in India during the war. The hospital's vast expanse, with its meticulously planned layout, speaks volumes about the meticulous planning and organization that went into ensuring the welfare of the soldiers. The hospital was equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, including advanced surgical equipment and a well-stocked pharmacy, which allowed for effective treatment of a wide range of injuries and illnesses. The photograph also underscores the complex and intricate relationship between colonialism and healthcare during this period. While the hospital represented the pinnacle of medical care, it also served as a symbol of the British Empire's dominance over India. The Indian population, however, also benefited from the hospital's existence, as many of its facilities were later repurposed for the local population. The image, with its intricate details and evocative atmosphere, transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past and the profound impact of the First World War on India and its people.
