EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking studio portrait, Colonel George Bruce Malleson (8 May 1825-1 March 1898) exudes an air of authority and sophistication. Malleson was a distinguished English officer who served in India, rising to the rank of Colonel in the Bengal Civil Service (CSI). He is best known for his significant contributions to the field of criminal investigation in India, introducing modern forensic techniques and procedures that revolutionized the investigation of crimes. The image captures Malleson in his later years, with a well-groomed beard and a stern yet thoughtful expression. He is dressed in the formal attire of the time, wearing a dark suit and a crisp white shirt, accessorized with a decorative cravat and a medal ribbon on his chest. The background is simple, with a plain, dark backdrop that allows Malleson to take center stage. This photograph was taken in 1895, during the Victorian era, a time when India was under British rule. The 1890s were a period of significant change and progress in India, with the British administration implementing various reforms and modernizing the country. Malleson's work in criminal investigation was a crucial part of this process, helping to establish a more efficient and effective system of law and order. Colonel Malleson was not only a respected officer but also an accomplished author. He wrote several books on criminal investigation and forensic science, further cementing his reputation as a leading expert in his field. This portrait is a testament to his achievements and the impact he had on both India and the wider world. Overall, this studio portrait of Colonel George Bruce Malleson is a fascinating glimpse into the life of a remarkable man who played a pivotal role in shaping the criminal justice system in India during the late 19th century.
