EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the late Maharajah of Holkar, a prominent figure in Indian history. Taken by an English photographer in the late 19th or early 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The Maharajah's regal presence is evident as he gazes into the distance, wearing traditional attire that reflects his Indian heritage. The photograph originates from "Living Races of Mankind" a renowned ethnographic publication by Hutchinson in circa 1910. It serves as a testament to the diverse races and cultures that exist within our world. With its focus on India and Asia, it highlights the rich tapestry of human differences found among native populations. The significance of this image lies not only in its historical value but also in its portrayal of Indian culture during the turn of the century. The Maharajah's dignified stance represents his status as a leader within his community and showcases elements unique to Asian societies. As we observe this portrait, we are reminded of how photography has allowed us to document and preserve moments from different eras. This particular print offers insight into both nineteenth-century India and early twentieth-century global perspectives on race and ethnicity. Bridgeman Images holds ownership rights for this remarkable piece captured by Look and Learn agency. While appreciating its artistic merit, let us acknowledge that commercial use should be avoided when discussing such culturally significant photographs.
