EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Statue of Lord Wellesley, created in 1925 by an unknown artist. The statue stands as a testament to the remarkable legacy of Richard Colley Wellesley, the 1st Marquess Wellesley, who played a significant role in British India during the early 20th century. Lord Wellesley's imposing figure is captured with his hand confidently placed on his hip, exuding authority and power. As a distinguished administrator and statesman, he served as Governor-General of India from 1798 to 1805. His tenure marked a pivotal era in British colonialism and imperialism. The photograph is sourced from "British Government in India, Volume Two" by Lord Curzon of Kedleston, published by Cassell and Company Ltd in London, New York, Toronto, and Melbourne in 1925. This historical book offers valuable insights into the politics and governance of British India during that time. In this portrait-like image taken from the book's pages, Lord Wellesley's posture reflects his dedication to duty while also showcasing his appreciation for arts and literature. It serves as a reminder of Britain's influence over its vast empire at its zenith. Preserved through time by The Print Collector - experts dedicated to conserving heritage images - this monochrome print allows us to delve into history while admiring the craftsmanship behind it. Let us cherish this glimpse into an extraordinary man’s life whose contributions shaped an entire era under British Raj rule.
