A Moment of Relaxation: Curry and Rice by the Bathing Pool at an 1860s British Station This evocative photograph, taken in the late 1860s, captures a moment of respite and relaxation for British travelers abroad. The scene is set at a railway station in India, where weary travelers have disembarked from their long journey. In the foreground, a man leans against a wooden railing, enjoying a steaming bowl of curry and a plate of rice. His attire, complete with a bowler hat and waistcoat, signifies his British heritage. In the background, a group of men gather around a bathing pool, engaging in various activities. Some are shaving, while others are swimming or lounging by the water's edge. The pool, surrounded by lush greenery and palm trees, is a welcome sight for the travelers after their arduous journey. The presence of inflatable wings in the pool adds an intriguing touch to the image. These wings, used for buoyancy, were a popular accessory for swimmers during this era. They allowed swimmers to stay afloat for longer periods, making swimming a more enjoyable experience. The photograph offers a glimpse into the history of travel during the British colonial era. The railway system played a significant role in connecting India to the rest of the British Empire, making travel more accessible and convenient. This photograph captures the essence of that era, showcasing the unique blend of cultures, traditions, and experiences that came with traveling abroad. Overall, this photograph is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the lives of British travelers in India during the late 1800s. The combination of the delicious aroma of curry and rice, the tranquility of the bathing pool, and the bustling activity of the railway station creates a captivating and memorable image.
