The Lord Napier Staute, Calcutta, c1905
The Lord Napier Staute, Calcutta, c1905. Napier was commissioned in the Bengal engineers in 1826. He served in the first and second Sikh Wars and helped in the relief of Lucknow in 1858 during the Indian mutiny. In 1867-68 he commanded what was regarded as a textbook campaign to free British prisoners in Ethiopia, culminating in the capture of Magdala, for which he was raised to the peerage. He went on to become commander in chief of the forces in India in 1870 and in 1876 was made governor of Gibraltar. From a postcard produced by D. Macropolo & Co. Calcutta

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Lord Napier Statue, Calcutta, c1905 captures the grandeur and historical significance of this magnificent equestrian memorial. The statue pays homage to Francis Napier, a distinguished figure who played a pivotal role in British colonial history. Commissioned in the Bengal Engineers in 1826, Napier's military career was marked by his involvement in the first and second Sikh Wars as well as his crucial contribution during the Indian Mutiny. This print showcases the statue standing tall on its plinth against the backdrop of bustling Calcutta. The monochrome tones evoke a sense of nostalgia for an era gone by, transporting viewers back to early 20th century India. Napier's animal likeness is skillfully captured as he confidently sits atop his majestic steed, symbolizing power and authority. This postcard produced by D. Macropolo & Co. , Calcutta serves as a testament to their craftsmanship and dedication to preserving historical moments through visual art. The Lord Napier Statue stands not only as a remarkable piece of art but also represents Britain's colonial presence in India during that time period. It serves as a reminder of both triumphs and challenges faced by those involved in shaping history. This print from Heritage Images offers us a glimpse into Kolkata's rich heritage while honoring one of its prominent figures - Francis Napier, later known as the 10th Lord Napier.
