In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the grandeur of the Viceroys Durbar Ball held in Delhi Fort in 1902. The image captures a mesmerizing moment as the State Lancers gracefully dance amidst the opulent surroundings of Diwan-I-Am. The scene is filled with an air of regality and elegance, as men dressed in military attire lead their female partners through intricate steps. Their synchronized movements create a beautiful spectacle against the backdrop of high arches and majestic pillars. This photograph not only showcases a stunning display of dance but also provides us with a glimpse into the customs and ceremonies that were prevalent during this era. The ball was organized to celebrate Edward VII's coronation, symbolizing his reign over British India. As we delve deeper into this image, it becomes evident that hospitality played a significant role at such events. Guests from different walks of life gathered together to revel in each other's company, transcending social boundaries for one enchanting evening.
