EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Group of Gonds or Gounds, c1891" takes us back to the 19th century in British India. The image, captured by James Grant for his book "Cassells Illustrated History of India Vol. I. ", offers a glimpse into the lives of indigenous people during the era of imperialism. In this portrait, we see three individuals seated together, representing both genders. The men and women are dressed in traditional attire, showcasing their cultural heritage. Their calm and composed expressions reflect a sense of pride and resilience amidst the changing times. The composition highlights the diversity within Indian society as it was influenced by British rule. These Gondi people belong to the Dravidian ethnic group native to central India. By including them in his work, Grant sheds light on local communities often overlooked in mainstream historical narratives. The monochromatic aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph while emphasizing its historical significance. It serves as a reminder that behind every empire lies a multitude of unique stories waiting to be told. As we observe this remarkable image from James Grant's collection held by Cassell Petter & Galpin, we are reminded not only of our shared humanity but also our responsibility to preserve and appreciate diverse cultures across continents.
