EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "[Lady Canning], 1858-61" captures the essence of British colonialism in India during the 19th century. Created by the talented artist Jean Baptiste Oscar Mallitte, this albumen silver print showcases Lady Charlotte Elizabeth Canning, wife of Charles John Canning, the first Viceroy of India. Intriguingly dressed in traditional Indian attire, Lady Canning sits atop a majestic Indian elephant adorned with an exquisite caparison. The detailed clothing and accessories reflect both her status as Countess Canning and her deep connection to British India's rich cultural heritage. The presence of a ladder hints at the intricate process involved in mounting such an enormous creature. A mahout, or elephant handler, stands nearby showcasing his expertise in guiding these magnificent animals. Mallitte skillfully captures this moment against a backdrop that symbolizes both power and imperialism - a testament to Britain's dominance over Hindoostan (India) during that era. The image not only highlights Lady Canning's elegance but also serves as a reminder of the complex dynamics between colonizer and colonized. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph is more than just an artistic masterpiece; it represents an important chapter in history when cultures collided and left indelible marks on each other.
