EDITORS COMMENTS
The lithograph titled "Tippoo Sabibs sons delivered as hostages to the English" captures a significant moment in history during the 19th century. The artwork depicts Sultan Fateh Ali Tipu, also known as the Tiger of Mysore, surrendering his two sons to General Charles Cornwallis after the first siege of Seringapatam in 1792. This poignant image showcases the power dynamics and imperialistic ambitions of the British Empire at that time. As part of their conquest over the Kingdom of Mysore, which was engaged in its third Anglo-Mysore War with Britain, General Cornwallis demanded these young princes as hostages from Tippoo Saib. The faces of these innocent children reflect both fear and uncertainty about their fate. Their journey into captivity symbolizes not only an act of subjugation but also highlights how war affects even those who are most vulnerable. Through this lithograph, we gain insight into a pivotal moment when East India Company troops exerted control over Indian territories and rulers. It serves as a reminder of the complex relationship between colonial powers and native kingdoms during this era. This historical print offers viewers an opportunity to contemplate themes such as imperialism, warfare, sacrifice, and power dynamics within empires. It invites us to reflect on how past events have shaped our present world while encouraging empathy towards those affected by conflicts throughout history.
