EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic moment captured in 1961, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, warmly engage in conversation with the renowned Sherpa Tensing Norgay at Rashtrapati Bhaven, the official residence of the President of India in New Delhi. Tensing, an esteemed mountaineer, had made headlines around the world just over a decade earlier when he summited Mount Everest alongside Sir Edmund Hillary on May 29, 1953. The Queen and Prince Philip's meeting with Tensing was likely part of their tour of India, which took place from late 1961 to early 1962. The royal couple's visit to India was significant as it marked the first state visit by a British monarch to the country since India's independence from British rule in 1947. In this image, the Queen and Prince Philip appear attentive and interested as they listen to Tensing, who is dressed in traditional Sherpa clothing. The warm and friendly atmosphere of the encounter is palpable, with all three individuals exuding a sense of respect and admiration for one another. The meeting between the Queen, Prince Philip, and the famous Sherpa guide serves as a testament to the enduring connections between the United Kingdom and India, as well as the awe-inspiring achievements of Tensing and his role in the history of mountaineering.
