EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and architectural beauty of La Martiniere Pillar, located in India. The image, taken by Felice Beato (also known as Felix), showcases the baroque style of this magnificent structure. La Martiniere Boys College was established through a generous endowment from Major-General Claude Martin, a wealthy Frenchman who served in both the French and British East India Companies during the 18th century. The college has historical significance as it is associated with the Indian Mutiny. The photo highlights the arid surroundings that frame this colonial masterpiece. The exterior of La Martiniere Pillar features elaborate columns and collonades, showcasing neo-classical influences. Its grandiose design includes cupolas that add to its majestic allure. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of photography from National Army Museum's collection. This print not only captures an iconic landmark but also serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of India's colonial architecture.
