EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historical moment in India's colonial past. Titled "Prince Albert Victor in India, a Photographic Group at Government House, Poona" the image showcases Prince Albert Victor, the governor of Bombay, surrounded by a diverse group of politicians and dignitaries. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this photograph offers a glimpse into the political and social landscape of that time. The setting is Government House in Poona (now Pune), a city known for its rich history and cultural heritage. In this scene, we see Lady Reay standing beside Prince Albert Victor, exuding elegance and grace. Other notable figures include Sir E Bradford and Lord Reay, who add to the regal atmosphere. The presence of Indian officials highlights their role in governance during British rule. The image not only documents an important visit but also reflects the intricate relationship between Britain and India during this period. It serves as a reminder of how photography played a crucial role in capturing significant moments throughout history. Displayed within private collections today, this remarkable piece from Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection provides us with valuable insights into both Indian culture and British imperialism.
