Deobun, near Umballah, India, c1860
Deobun, near Umballah, India, c1860. The Indian Rebellion of 1857 began in the town of Meerut and soon erupted into other mutinies and civilian rebellions across many regions of Company-ruled north-central India. The rebellion posed a considerable threat to British power in that region and it was contained only with the fall of Gwalior on 20 June 1858. The rebellion is also often known as the Indian Mutiny, the Sepoy Mutiny, the Great Rebellion, the Revolt of 1857 and occasionally, in India, as the First War of Independence. From The History of the Indian Mutiny, volume VII, by Charles Ball, published by The London Printing & Publishing Company (c1860)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the tumultuous period of the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The photograph captures the serene beauty of Deobun, a small town near Umballah in India, against the backdrop of a majestic mountain range. As we gaze at this landscape, it is hard to fathom that such tranquility once coexisted with an uprising that shook British power in north-central India. Known by various names such as the Indian Mutiny or Sepoy Mutiny, this rebellion began in Meerut and quickly spread across different regions. It posed a significant threat to British rule until its containment with the fall of Gwalior in June 1858. This historic event is also referred to as the Great Rebellion or even hailed as India's First War of Independence. The print itself is an engraving from Charles Ball's volume VII publication, "The History of the Indian Mutiny". Its monochrome depiction adds depth and intensity to our understanding of this momentous chapter in history. The mountains stand tall and unwavering amidst turmoil, symbolizing resilience and endurance. As we reflect on this image, we are reminded not only of past struggles but also how landscapes can bear witness to historical events. Deobun serves as both a resting place for weary travelers and a silent observer of human strife. Through this photograph, we glimpse into a time long gone while appreciating nature's timeless beauty intertwined with stories etched into its very fabric.
