EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in history between Queen Victoria and her devoted Indian servant, Abdul Karim, also known as the Munshi. Taken around 1890, it shows Queen Victoria seated at her writing desk, deep in thought and surrounded by papers. In the background stands Abdul Karim, looking on with respect and loyalty.
Queen Victoria ruled over Great Britain and Ireland as well as being the Empress of India during this time period. Her relationship with Abdul Karim was one that defied social norms of the era - a powerful monarch forming a close bond with an Indian clerk.
The image is not only a testament to their unique friendship but also serves as a reminder of the diverse influences present within Victorian society. It challenges stereotypes and showcases the importance of cultural exchange.
As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded of Queen Victoria's reign and her impact on both British and Indian history. The presence of Abdul Karim in the background symbolizes his role as more than just a servant - he was a trusted confidant and secretary to one of the most influential figures of his time.
