EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1925, depicts Princess Manorama Raja of Indore, India, in an extraordinary moment of triumph and defiance. The Princess, the daughter of the Maharaja of Indore, stands proudly over the body of a tiger she has hunted and killed. The powerful predator lies still, its once-terrifying form now lifeless, as the Princess gazes down at her prey with a mix of awe, determination, and satisfaction. The Princess, dressed in traditional Indian attire, holds a rifle in her hand, the barrel still smoky from the recent shot. Her expression is one of intense focus and determination, reflecting the skill and courage required to take down such a formidable creature. The image captures the spirit of the 1920s, an era of change and modernization in India, where traditional customs and practices continued to coexist with the influences of the modern world. The photograph is a testament to the Princess's strength and independence, challenging societal norms and expectations of women during that time. The image of a huntress, with the body of a tiger as her trophy, was a rare sight in the 1920s, making this photograph all the more intriguing and noteworthy. The image is a powerful reminder of the Princess's legacy and the unique role she played in Indian history.
