The image captures him standing proudly at Osborne House on the Isle of Wight, as part of the renowned "Royal Tableaux" album. Taken in 1893 by an unknown photographer from Historic England Photo Library, this snapshot offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and times of Munshi Abdul Karim. Hafiz Abdul Karim's story is one of resilience and triumph over adversity. Born around 1863, he rose above societal barriers to become an influential figure within Queen Victoria's court. Serving as her trusted Indian clerk or "Munshi" he developed a close bond with Her Majesty that transcended cultural boundaries. In this photograph, Hafiz Abdul Karim exudes confidence and dignity while dressed in traditional attire befitting his heritage. His presence at Osborne House symbolizes both his personal connection with Queen Victoria and the wider significance of multiculturalism within Victorian society.

Their stories deserve recognition for their contributions to breaking down barriers and fostering understanding between different cultures. Through this image captured by Historic England Photo Library, we are transported back to an era where diversity was celebrated even amidst prevailing social norms - truly encapsulating the spirit of progressiveness that defined Victorian Britain.
