EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1498 when Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama made his historic introduction to the Zamorin of Kozhikode in India. The artist Robinson beautifully captures this momentous occasion, depicting da Gama being received by Manavikraman Raja, also known as the Saamoothiri or Zamorin. The image showcases a meeting of minds and cultures, as two powerful figures from different lands come together. Da Gama stands tall and regal in his distinctive headdress, representing Portugal's influence and ambition for exploration. On the other side, Manavikraman Raja exudes authority and grace with his turban adorning his head. This illustration is taken from "The History of China and India" by Miss Corner, published in London in 1847. It serves as a visual testament to the significance of international relations during that era. Politics and diplomacy were at play as these men engaged in discussions that would shape their nations' futures. Through this black-and-white engraving, we catch a glimpse into a pivotal moment where East meets West - a fusion of cultures that would have far-reaching consequences for both countries involved. As we admire this print today, let us appreciate its historical value and remember the brave explorers who dared to venture into unknown territories centuries ago.
