EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in history as the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, makes his way through the bustling Chandni Chowk market in Delhi during his tour of India in 1876. The Prince, dressed in full ceremonial attire and mounted on horseback, is surrounded by a sea of onlookers, both Indian and British, who have gathered to catch a glimpse of the royal visitor. The Chandni Chowk, or Moonlit Square, is a historic and vibrant market area in Old Delhi, known for its labyrinthine streets filled with shops selling spices, textiles, jewelry, and other wares. The Prince's visit was a significant event in the colonial history of India, and this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the pomp and ceremony of the British royal tour. The Prince's procession through the Chandni Chowk was a carefully choreographed spectacle, with soldiers, musicians, and officials accompanying him on his journey. The Indian crowds, dressed in their finest clothes, eagerly awaited his passage, hoping for a glimpse of the royal visitor and a chance to touch his cloak or horse's reins for good luck. This photograph, taken in the 1870s, offers a unique perspective on the intersection of British and Indian cultures during the colonial era. It captures the excitement and energy of the moment, as well as the contrast between the grandeur of the British royalty and the vibrant, chaotic world of the Indian marketplace.
