EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Indian Widows, 1827-35" takes us back to the colonial era in South Asia. The image, a colour lithograph by M. E. Burnouf, showcases two Indian widows dressed in traditional attire on the riverbank of a serene water body. The women's costumes exude elegance and reflect the rich cultural heritage of India. Their vibrant garments stand out against the backdrop of lush greenery and calm waters, creating a picturesque scene that transports us to another time. This illustration is part of L'Inde Francaise, a renowned publication from Paris: Chabrelle dating back to 1827-35. It offers an intriguing glimpse into domestic life during this period while also shedding light on French travel and Orientalism. The image not only captures the beauty of these widows but also serves as a reminder of their societal status at that time. In Indian culture, widows were often marginalized and faced numerous restrictions due to prevailing customs and traditions. Through this photo print, we are invited to explore the complexities of history and witness moments frozen in time. The Stapleton Collection has preserved this remarkable piece from British archives for future generations to appreciate its artistic value and historical significance.
