EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant atmosphere of a Fancy Dress Ball at Mrs. Casement's residence in Calcutta, India during the 1830s. The image, taken by William Prinsep, showcases an array of guests dressed in exquisite Georgian and Empire-era attire. The ballroom is alive with energy as men and women gracefully dance to the enchanting melodies filling the air. The scene is bustling with activity, portraying a lively social gathering where people from different backgrounds come together to celebrate. Intriguingly, the photograph bears inscriptions that add a personal touch to this historical moment. In one corner, Prinsep himself humorously identifies his own costume as "the Chinaman". Other names are also mentioned alongside their respective costumes, offering glimpses into the diverse characters present at this extravagant event. The combination of British expatriates and Indian locals further adds to the cultural richness depicted in this image. It serves as a testament to how social events like these fostered connections between different communities during colonial times. Through Prinsep's lens, we are transported back in time to witness not only an evening of elegance but also a celebration of unity amidst diversity. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistry captured within its frame and its historical significance as an emblematic representation of 19th-century Calcutta society.
