EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph on blue paper transports us back to the historic Poona Military School in November 1853. The anonymous creator skillfully captures a scene brimming with cultural significance and educational fervor. Set against the backdrop of colonial India, this artifact offers a glimpse into the British influence on Indian military education during the 19th century. The image showcases a bustling courtyard within the school grounds, where students engage in various activities that embody discipline and camaraderie. Young cadets clad in military uniforms can be seen engrossed in their studies, diligently poring over books or engaging in animated discussions under the watchful eye of their instructors. The lithograph's intricate details highlight not only the architectural beauty of Poona Military School but also its role as an emblematic institution fostering knowledge and character development among aspiring soldiers. This rare piece from Keystone Archives provides valuable insight into India's rich heritage and historical ties with Britain. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this antique print serves as a testament to our shared past and reminds us of the transformative power of education across cultures. It stands as a tribute to those who have walked these hallowed halls before us, leaving an indelible mark on both nations' histories.
