EDITORS COMMENTS

This photograph, taken circa 1890s, depicts Europeans proudly seated atop majestic elephants as they traverse through the lush landscapes of India. The image is a poignant reminder of the colonial era, when the Western world held significant power and influence over the Indian subcontinent. The Europeans, dressed in their finest attire, exude an air of privilege and entitlement as they command the large animals, their bodies casually leaning against the elephants' massive ears. The elephants, adorned with intricate decorations and ornate howdahs, seem to submit to their riders, their obedient and loyal companions in this unfamiliar terrain. Native Indians, dressed in traditional clothing, can be seen in the background, serving as attendants to the Europeans. Their roles as laborers and support staff were an integral part of the colonial system, which perpetuated the power dynamic between the Westerners and the native population. The use of elephants as a mode of transportation was a common practice during the colonial era, showcasing the Westerners' ability to conquer and control the natural world. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a historical record of a time when the world was irrevocably changed by the reach and impact of European colonialism.
