EDITORS COMMENTS

Queen Victoria, the revered monarch of Great Britain and Ireland from 1837 to 1901, is seen conferring the prestigious Victoria Cross upon heroes of Dargai. These valiant men belong to the British Army who fearlessly fought in what was then known as the Indian northwestern province. The image showcases a solemn ceremony held indoors within the walls of Netley Hospital. The injured soldiers stand before their sovereign with visible signs of sacrifice and bravery etched upon their faces. Queen Victoria herself appears regal and compassionate as she personally decorates each hero with this esteemed medal for their acts of valor.
