EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the iconic Queen Victoria, Empress of India, alongside her trusted confidante Abdul Karim The Munshi. Taken in 1894 by an English photographer, this image portrays the unique bond between the British monarch and her Indian servant. Queen Victoria's reign was marked by her deep interest in India and its culture. She employed Abdul Karim as her Indian Secretary in 1887, recognizing his intellect and linguistic skills. In this photograph, we see them together at a desk where Queen Victoria would often engage with matters related to India. The image exudes regality as Queen Victoria sits upright with grace while Abdul Karim stands beside her wearing a traditional turban. His presence symbolizes not only their professional relationship but also represents the diverse empire over which she reigned. Abdul Karim played an instrumental role in introducing Queen Victoria to Urdu language and Muslim customs during their close association. Their friendship sparked curiosity among many who questioned the boundaries of class and race prevalent during that era. As we delve into this historical snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of Queen Victoria's fascination with India and how she embraced diversity within the British Empire. This remarkable photograph encapsulates both power dynamics and cultural exchange against the backdrop of Victorian England.
