EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a remarkable act of generosity by Ranjitsinhji Vibhaji, Maharaja Jam Sahib of Nawanagar. In the image, Ranji is seen giving his house at Staines, Jamnagar as a hospital to The Prince of Wales. Known for his exceptional cricketing skills and hailed as a legendary batsman, Ranji was not only an Indian prince but also played for the English cricket team. Taken in the 20th century by Alfieri, this monochrome photograph showcases the grandeur of Ranji's estate with its sprawling garden and grounds. However, instead of indulging in personal luxury, he selflessly donated his residence to serve as a hospital during times when medical facilities were scarce. The image also features nurses attending to patients within the premises. Their presence highlights the compassionate care provided within these walls that were once filled with laughter and joy. Ranji's act exemplifies true nobility and philanthropy beyond borders or nationalities. His decision to convert his lavish home into a healthcare facility demonstrates his commitment towards serving humanity during challenging times. This historic photograph serves as a reminder of how individuals can make significant contributions through their actions and inspire others to follow suit. It stands as a testament to both Ranjitsinhji Vibhaji's character and the enduring power of compassion in our world today.
