"Lady Curzon: The American Lady Who Became the Vice-Reine des Indes" In 1898, amidst great fanfare, Lord and Lady Curzon arrived at the Apollo Bunder in Bombay. This lithograph captures their grand entrance, marking the beginning of an extraordinary journey that would shape history. Lady Mary Curzon, born in 1870, was not only a woman of elegance and grace but also made history as the first American lady to become the wife of a Viceroy of India. Her arrival in Calcutta was met with excitement as her party neared Government House. An engraving immortalizes this momentous occasion. As Vice-Reine des Indes, Lady Curzon's influence extended far beyond her title. She played an active role in British India's social and cultural life while championing various causes close to her heart. A colored photograph showcases her regal presence. Accompanied by Lord Curzon, who served as Viceroy from 1899 to 1905, Lady Curzon embarked on numerous journeys across India. A color lithograph depicts their majestic entry into Delhi—an event that left indelible memories for all who witnessed it. The Viceregal Lodge in Simla became a hub for political discussions and lavish gatherings during Lord and Lady Curzon's tenure. A black-and-white photograph captures them amidst a group at this historic residence—a testament to their influential roles. Beyond politics and society, Lady Curzon had a passion for horticulture—particularly pelargoniums—and decorative plants adorned many spaces under her guidance. A chromolitho titled "Fancy Show and Decorative Pelargoniums" pays homage to her love for botanical beauty. Lord Curzon's visit to Lucknow presented yet another opportunity for celebration as they gathered at Government House—a moment captured forever through a black-and-white photograph showcasing their camaraderie amongst esteemed guests.
