EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of working elephants and estate coolies in India during the late 19th century. The image transports us back in time to an era when the tea and timber industries were flourishing, and labor-intensive methods were the norm. The coolies, or laborers, are shown in traditional attire, with their bare feet and simple loincloths, as they toil under the watchful eyes of their supervisors. The elephants, an integral part of the transportation and logistics of the plantation, are harnessed and ready to carry heavy loads. Their powerful forms and expressive eyes convey a sense of strength and dignity, despite their role as working animals. The lush greenery and misty mountains in the background add to the ethereal beauty of the scene, while the ethnic diversity of the coolies highlights the rich cultural tapestry of India during this period. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the lives of the people who contributed to the economic growth of the country during the 1880s, 1890s, and early 1900s. It is an important ethnographic and historical record, providing valuable insights into the working conditions and traditions of this era.
