EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in the annals of British-Indian history, as His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, later King George V, and Her Royal Highness, the Princess of Wales, later Queen Mary, pay a reverent visit to the sacred Golden Temple in Amritsar, India, in the year 1906. The royal couple's tour of India was a significant event in the early 1900s, marking their first joint visit to the subcontinent as the heir to the British throne and his consort. The Golden Temple, a magnificent architectural marvel and the holiest gurdwara (Sikh place of worship) in the Sikh faith, is nestled within the tranquil Pool of Immortality. The Prince and Princess of Wales are depicted here, standing on a platform at the side of the pool, taking in the breathtaking sight of the temple, its golden dome shimmering in the sunlight. The scene is further enriched by the presence of Akali devotees, who extend their blessings to the royal visitors. The Akalis, a Sikh order of warrior-monks, are dressed in their distinctive attire, adding a vibrant and colorful contrast to the otherwise serene setting. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich cultural exchange between the British monarchy and the people of India during a pivotal period in their shared history. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the subcontinent and the profound impact it continues to have on the world.
