EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Aga Khan III (Mohammed Shah), the esteemed leader of the Ismailis, in 1926. The portrait, created by Alick P F Ritchie and issued as a cigarette card by John Player & Sons, captures the essence of this influential figure. Aga Khan III's Indian heritage is evident in his traditional attire and distinctive hat. His face, adorned with a well-groomed moustache, exudes wisdom and authority. As a prominent Muslim leader, he represents not only his community but also serves as an ambassador for Islam. The vibrant colors used in this print bring out the richness of Aga Khan III's dress and highlight his regal presence. Despite being depicted on a collectible cigarette card from the 1920s, it is important to note that this image holds historical significance beyond its commercial use. Through this portrait, we catch a glimpse into the life of an extraordinary man who dedicated himself to religious leadership and promoting peace among diverse communities. Aga Khan III's legacy extends far beyond his time; he left an indelible mark on both his country and religion. This remarkable photograph allows us to appreciate not only Alick P F Ritchie's artistic talent but also provides insight into the life of Mohammed Shah Aga Khan – a visionary leader whose influence continues to resonate today.
