EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and opulence of a fleet of Standard cars, meticulously lined up on the pavement in India, awaiting the arrival of the King and Queen in 1911. The scene unfolds on the bustling streets of Coventry, the heart of the British motor industry, where the cars were manufactured with the utmost care and attention to detail. The regal couple, represented here by empty seats, were on an official visit to India for the Durbar celebrations in Delhi. The fleet, consisting of Phaetons, Landaus, and Landaulettes, was ordered specifically for their transport during the trip. Each car was upholstered in the finest leather, exuding an aura of luxury and sophistication. The photograph offers a glimpse into the intricate process of manufacturing and production that went into creating these luxurious vehicles. The cars were meticulously designed and crafted at the Standard Motor Company's works, with the latest technology and the finest materials. The Friswell brothers, renowned for their expertise in automobile engineering, oversaw the production of these vehicles. The image also highlights the importance of the automobile industry during this era, as it played a significant role in the transportation of royalty and the elite. The cars were not just a means of transport but a symbol of power, wealth, and status. The photograph, taken in 1911, stands as a testament to the grandeur and majesty of the British Raj and the role of the automobile industry in shaping it.
