EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Plan of Delhi 1857-58" a remarkable piece of cartography engraved by Guyot & Wood and published by William Mackenzie in Edinburgh around 1860. Measuring at 26x18 cm, this colored engraving offers a fascinating glimpse into the city of Delhi during the infamous Rebellion of 1857. Delhi, as depicted in this map, is presented with intricate detail and precision. The Jumna River gracefully winds its way through the cityscape, while palaces and buildings dot the landscape. This visual representation provides valuable insight into not only the geographical layout but also the political boundaries that existed during British Raj in India. The historical significance of this artwork cannot be overstated. It serves as a poignant reminder of one of India's most significant uprisings against colonial rule - the Indian Mutiny or Sepoy Rebellion. By examining this plan, viewers are transported back to a time when tensions ran high and resistance simmered beneath the surface. Preserved within a private collection today, this English School creation has surpassed copyright restrictions due to its age. Its availability for public viewing allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and historical importance. As we explore every line and contour on this map, we gain deeper insights into Delhi's past – an invaluable resource for historians, geographers, and anyone fascinated by India's rich cultural heritage.
