EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to 1860, capturing a moment in time at a British soldier camp in India. The image showcases a British soldier taking a bath amidst the exotic surroundings of India, with a steaming bowl of curry and rice placed nearby. This unique blend of cultures is truly fascinating, highlighting the influence of Indian cuisine on the soldiers stationed abroad.
The soldier appears relaxed as he enjoys his meal and bath, providing us with a glimpse into daily life during this historical period. The presence of a curious goat adds an element of charm to the scene, reminding us that even in times of war and conflict, moments of peace and simplicity can still be found.
Through this photograph, we are reminded of the rich history shared between Britain and India, as well as the impact of colonialism on both countries. It serves as a reminder that travel not only broadens our horizons but also brings about cultural exchange and understanding.
Mary Evans Prints Online has beautifully preserved this piece of history for us to admire and reflect upon. It is a testament to the power of photography in capturing moments that transcend time and space.
