EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking front cover image from the Tatler magazine, dated 1904, features Lord and Lady Curzon in their imperial splendor during their time in India. Lord Curzon, George Nathaniel Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston (1859-1925), was a prominent British Conservative statesman, Viceroy and Governor-General of India, and Foreign Secretary. Here, he is pictured with his first wife, Mary Victoria Leiter (d. 1906), the daughter of the founder of Chicago's renowned department store, Marshall Field. The caption reports on Lady Curzon's long-standing illness, which ultimately led to her untimely death in 1906. The photograph captures the Curzons in the midst of a big game hunting expedition in the Indian jungle, with Lord Curzon triumphantly dispatching an unfortunate tiger. The image is a testament to the imperial might and power of the British Raj, with both Lord and Lady Curzon dressed in the appropriate pith helmets and hunting gear. The image exudes an air of sophistication and elegance, reflecting the high society standards of the time. The Tatler, a prominent society magazine of the era, showcased the lives of the elite, and this cover image offers a glimpse into the lives of the Curzons during their time in India. The image is a historical record of a bygone era, one that highlights the power, prestige, and privilege of the British Raj in India.
