Another Eclipse for India, 1868. Artist: John Tenniel
Another Eclipse for India, 1868. Lord John Lawrence had been the Viceroy of India since 1863, but was now preparing to hand over his authority to Lord Mayo. Lawrences time in office had been largely unmarked in the British media, the furore caused by the Mutiny of 1857 having long died down. However, that India still fears the shadow of the British army is shown in this cartoon. From Punch, or the London Charivari, September, 1868

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Another Eclipse for India, 1868" captures the political climate of 19th century India under British rule. The artist, John Tenniel, depicts the impending transition of power from Lord John Lawrence to Lord Mayo as a metaphorical eclipse. Despite the relative calm in British media following the Mutiny of 1857, this cartoon reveals that India still harbors deep-seated fears and concerns about the presence and influence of the British army. In this satirical engraving, an aristocratic woman is shown wearing a veil symbolizing her country's subjugation. Surrounding her are men who appear scared and prayerful, highlighting their vulnerability in facing colonial authority. The governor or viceroy of India is depicted with a moustache, representing his position as a statesman responsible for governing this vast land. The monochrome black-and-white aesthetic adds to the sense of alarm and fear conveyed by Tenniel's artwork. It serves as a reminder that despite progress made since the mutiny years earlier, there remains an underlying unease among Indians regarding their autonomy and religious freedom. This heritage image partnership between John Laird Mair Lawrence and John Tenniel offers viewers insight into both historical events and societal attitudes during this period. It reminds us that even though time may have passed since significant upheavals like the Mutiny of 1857 occurred, their impact continues to shape perceptions and fears within society.
