EDITORS COMMENTS
A Grand Welcome: The Arrival of King George V and Queen Mary in Bombay (Mumbai), 1911 This evocative photograph captures a significant moment in Indian history as King George V and Queen Mary disembarked from their royal yacht, the SS Khiva, upon their arrival in Bombay (Mumbai) on their way to the Coronation Durbar in Delhi. The Durbar was held in December 1911 to proclaim the new Emperor and Empress of India. A large crowd of dignitaries, committee members, and the city's elite gathered at the Bombay Port to welcome the royal couple. Sir Pherozeshah Mehta, the President of the Bombay Municipality, reads the address of welcome to the King and Queen from the ornate pavilion, while the royal party sits on the throne. The Amphitheatre, adorned with flags and banners, serves as the backdrop for this grand occasion. The King and Queen were greeted with great enthusiasm by the Indian population, who turned out in large numbers to catch a glimpse of their monarchs. The Coronation Durbar marked the beginning of a new era in British India, and this photograph serves as a testament to the grandeur and pomp that accompanied the royal visit. The image offers a unique glimpse into the historical significance of this event, providing a window into the rich cultural and political history of India during the early 20th century. The photograph's composition, with the royal couple seated on the throne and Sir Pherozeshah Mehta reading the address of welcome, effectively conveys the sense of occasion and the transfer of power from the British monarchy to the Indian subcontinent.
