EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library, Queen Victoria stands solemnly before an elaborate backdrop as she is proclaimed Empress of India in 1877. The regal monarch, dressed in her full coronation robes and adorned with the Imperial Crown of India, appears somewhat unenthusiastic about the grand title bestowed upon her. Surrounding her are an array of exotic symbols and creatures, including an elephant, a snake, and a fanfare of trumpeters, alluding to the Eastern influences of the Indian subcontinent. A herald holds aloft the Proclamation of the Queen Empress, while a sinister figure, dressed as the Hindu deity Kaisar, looks on with a menacing expression. This satirical depiction of the imperial proclamation event, which marked the formal extension of British rule over India, highlights the complex and often contradictory nature of Victorian-era imperialism. The exoticizing elements in the scene, such as the elephant and the snake, serve to reinforce the perceived otherness of India, while the use of the Hindu deity as a symbol of imperial power underscores the colonialist attitudes of the time. Despite the fanfare and heraldry, the image of a seemingly disinterested Queen Victoria adds a layer of irony and nuance to this historical scene. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the imperial mindset of the late 19th century and the complex relationship between Europe and its colonies.
