EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and majesty of the British monarchy's state entry into Delhi in 1912. The King-Emperor, clad in a field-marshal's uniform adorned with the Star of India, leads the procession, symbolizing the British monarch's role as the Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army. His Queen-Empress, resplendent in her regal attire, accompanies him, reflecting the powerful influence of the British colonial rule in India. Soldiers, in their crisp uniforms, line the route, saluting their monarchs as they pass by. The scene is a testament to the military might and disciplined order that characterized the British Raj. The Star of India, a decoration awarded to military personnel for meritorious service in India, is prominently displayed on the King-Emperor's uniform, further emphasizing the close connection between the monarchy and the Indian military. The state entry into Delhi marked a significant moment in the history of British colonial rule in India. It symbolized the monarch's physical presence and assertion of power, as well as the deep-rooted colonialist beliefs that underpinned the British presence in India. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the British monarchy held sway over the Indian subcontinent.
