EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Statue of Lord Dalhousie, a remarkable piece of art created in 1925. The identity of the creator remains unknown, but their talent shines through this image. Lord Dalhousie, also known as James Broun Ramsay, was an influential figure who served as the Governor-General of India from 1848 to 1856 during the British Raj. The photograph is sourced from "British Government in India, Volume Two" authored by Lord Curzon of Kedleston and published by Cassell and Company Ltd in London, New York, Toronto, and Melbourne in 1925. It offers a glimpse into the rich history and colonial legacy that shaped British India. Lord Dalhousie's statue stands tall against a backdrop reminiscent of nineteenth-century architecture. With his arm outstretched towards something unseen, he exudes authority and determination. This monochrome portrayal emphasizes his role as an administrator within the British Empire. As we admire this image today, it serves as a reminder of imperialism's impact on Indian society during that era. The statue symbolizes power dynamics between Britain and its colonies while reflecting upon Lord Dalhousie's policies that significantly influenced Indian governance. Through literature like this book by Lord Curzon himself or other historical records available to us now, we can delve deeper into understanding these complex times when men like George Nathaniel Curzon played key roles in shaping policy decisions for British India.
