George Curzon, a prominent English politician and statesman, left an indelible mark on the history of India during his tenure as Viceroy. Known for his grandeur and influence, Lord Curzon's arrival in Bombay in 1898 was met with great anticipation. The lithograph captures the majestic scene at Apollo Bunder as he disembarks from his ship alongside Lady Curzon. Lord and Lady Curzon's journey continued to Calcutta, where they were greeted by a procession nearing Government House. This engraving depicts the splendor of their arrival, symbolizing the power and authority that would soon be bestowed upon Lord Curzon. During his time in India, Lord Curzon oversaw significant projects such as the construction of Victoria Memorial in Calcutta. This iconic structure became a testament to British imperialism while showcasing architectural brilliance. A photograph from the early 1910s reveals its magnificence against a backdrop of lush gardens. Back in England, Lord Curzon's achievements were celebrated when he was installed as Chancellor of Oxford University in 1907. A black-and-white photo captures this momentous occasion, highlighting his esteemed position within academia. Beyond politics and governance, George Nathaniel Curzon had personal milestones too. His marriage to Miss Mary Leiter is immortalized through another black-and-white photograph; their union representing both love and social standing. As Viceroy-Elect of India and later Viceroy itself, Lord Curzon held immense responsibility over one-fifth of humanity under British rule. Lithographs portray him assuming these roles with dignity and grace – addressing audiences at banquets or speaking at clubs like Royal Societies Club. However influential he may have been politically or socially, it also possessed a sense of humor evident at Mr Punch's Literary Costume Ball depicted in an engraving – showing that even politicians can enjoy lighthearted festivities.
