EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a historic moment in the annals of British colonial rule in India, as Lord Mayo, the Viceroy of India from 1869 to 1872, pays a visit to the city of Peshawar in May 1870. Dressed in full regalia, Lord Mayo is seen seated on a horse, surrounded by a large entourage of European and Indian officials. The backdrop of the image is the picturesque landscape of Peshawar, with the snow-capped mountains of the Hindu Kush range visible in the distance. Lord Mayo's visit to Peshawar was significant as it marked the beginning of a new phase in the British administration of the North-West Frontier Province. During his tenure, Lord Mayo implemented several reforms aimed at consolidating British control over the region and improving the lives of the local population. However, his policies were not without controversy, and his administration was marred by racial tensions and conflicts with local rulers. This photograph provides a glimpse into the grandeur and pomp of colonial rule in India during the late 19th century. It also serves as a reminder of the complex and often contentious relationship between the British colonial authorities and the indigenous population of India. Despite the challenges, Lord Mayo's visit to Peshawar marked an important chapter in the history of British India, and this photograph offers a fascinating insight into that period.
