EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of quiet intimacy between Queen Victoria and her devoted servant, Abdul Karim, also known as the Munshi, in the year 1885. The image, taken when Abdul had been in the Queen's service for seven years, shows Victoria in deep concentration at her desk, surrounded by the trappings of power and authority. The regal monarch, dressed in a dark gown and adorned with the Order of the Star of India and the Order of the Crown of India, leans forward, her brow furrowed as she studies a document. Abdul Karim, a humble Indian servant who had been brought to England to present a ceremonial coin to the Queen during her Golden Jubilee celebrations, stands behind her, his hands folded respectfully in front of him. He had quickly gained the Queen's favor and had become her confidant, teacher, and personal assistant. The Munshi, who was fluent in Urdu, Hindi, and Persian, became an invaluable source of knowledge and companionship for the aging monarch, who was deeply saddened by the loss of her consort, Prince Albert, a decade earlier. The photograph, taken in the late Victorian era, is a poignant reminder of the complex and intriguing relationship between the Queen and her servant. Abdul's presence in the Queen's life brought a sense of comfort and continuity during a time of great personal loss and political change. The image also underscores the importance of the British Empire's connections with India and the impact of colonialism on the lives of individuals and their relationships.
