EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving from the Liszt Collection captures a significant moment in history - the royal visit of the Prince of Wales to India in 1876. The image showcases the majestic Indian Government steamer May Frere, with its distinguished passenger on board, passing by Aguada Fort in Goa. The intricate illustrative technique used in this engraved image transports us back to a bygone era, showcasing the Victorian arts and culture prevalent during that time. The retro-styled vintage print exudes an air of nostalgia and historic charm. In addition to capturing this iconic moment, the engraving also features another enchanting scene - Jinjeera Harbour of Rajpuri, located fifty miles away from Bombay. This picturesque island adds depth and beauty to the composition, further enhancing our visual journey through India's rich landscapes. As we admire this historic artwork, we are reminded of the significance of royal visits as diplomatic gestures between nations. Such encounters not only strengthen political ties but also provide opportunities for cultural exchange and mutual understanding. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical documentation. It allows us to appreciate how engravement was once a popular medium for preserving important events like these for future generations to cherish.
