November 8, 1875: Prince of Wales Edward VII Arrives in Bombay Marking the Beginning of His Historic India Tour This evocative image captures the moment when Prince of Wales and future King Edward VII, accompanied by his wife Alexandra of Denmark, disembarked from the HMS Doris at Apollo Bunder in Bombay Harbour, marking the start of their highly anticipated India tour. The royal couple's arrival on Indian soil was met with great fanfare and excitement, as they were welcomed by a large crowd of eager onlookers, including British officials, Indian dignitaries, and members of the local community. The tour, which lasted from November 1875 to March 1876, was a significant event in the history of the British Raj. Edward's visit was intended to strengthen the political and cultural ties between Britain and India, as well as to showcase the progress and prosperity of the British colonial rule. During his journey, the Prince traveled extensively throughout the subcontinent, visiting major cities such as Delhi, Agra, and Calcutta, as well as various princely states. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the grandeur and spectacle of the royal tour, with the Prince and Princess standing on the deck of the ship, surrounded by their entourage, as they prepare to step ashore and begin their Indian adventure. The image also serves as a poignant reminder of the complex and multifaceted relationship between Britain and India during the late Victorian era, a relationship that continues to shape the political, cultural, and historical landscape of both countries to this day.
