EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grand state arrival of the esteemed Maharaja of Benares at Delhi, India in 1912. The artist, HD Girdwood, skillfully portrays a momentous event in Indian history. Prabhu Narayan Singh, the reigning Maharaja from 1889 until his passing in 1931, is depicted here amidst an entourage of soldiers and dignitaries. The image showcases the opulent royal dress worn by the Maharaja as he steps foot onto Delhi's soil. His regal costume exudes power and authority befitting his status as a ruler. Surrounding him are soldiers standing tall with their weapons held high, forming an impressive guard of honor that symbolizes both protection and loyalty. The significance of this visit extends beyond mere pomp and circumstance; it represents a crucial connection between British Raj rule and Indian royalty. As part of the British Empire, this state visit highlights the complex dynamics between colonial powers and indigenous rulers during this period. Girdwood's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this print - from capturing each individual soldier to showcasing architectural elements that reflect India's rich cultural heritage. This stereoscopic card allows viewers to immerse themselves into this historical moment through three-dimensional photography.

It serves as a reminder not only of India's vibrant past but also its enduring spirit as
