EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1844, offering a glimpse into the prestigious Court of Proprietors of the East India Company. Located in Leadenhall Street, London, this General Court Room exudes an air of power and influence. The east side is adorned with rows of seats that ascend towards the ceiling, accompanied by a gallery where members of the public are granted access. Positioned on the floor are seats reserved for esteemed individuals such as the chairman, secretary, and clerks. Against the west wall stand six statues honoring prominent figures who have made significant contributions to the East India Company's legacy. Lord Clive, Warren Hastings, and Marquis Cornwallis grace one side while Sir Eyre Coote, General Lawrance, and Sir George Pococke occupy niches on the other. Interestingly enough, it is rumored that a statue of Marquis Wellesley will soon fill an empty space at their center. The atmosphere within this court room speaks volumes about British colonialism during this era. It symbolizes not only wealth and trade but also power dynamics inherent in institutions like these. This engraving from "Illustrated London News" provides us with a fascinating window into history - a reminder of how influential businessmen shaped nations through their involvement in commerce and politics.
