A Scene of Housekeeping in India - The Judge's Wife Watches Over Her Home (Mary Evans Picture Library, ref - MEPL000213)
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in India around 1860, captures a moment in the daily life of a British wife living abroad. The image shows a woman, elegantly dressed in a long, flowing skirt and blouse, seated in a well-appointed room. She is intently focused on the task at hand, carefully weighing rice on a set of ornate scales. A steaming pot of curry sits on the table before her, its aroma filling the room and tantalizing the senses. The atmosphere in the room is tranquil, with the gentle swaying of the punkah (a traditional Indian fan) providing a soothing breeze. A cat, curiously watching from a nearby chair, adds a touch of whimsy to the scene. The woman's expression is one of concentration and satisfaction, as she takes pride in the role of housekeeping, ensuring that her husband's home is well-maintained and comfortable. This photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of British expats in India during the colonial era, providing a window into their daily routines and the cultural exchange that took place between the two nations. The image also highlights the importance of housekeeping and the role of women in maintaining a household, both in Britain and abroad. The combination of historical significance, exotic locales, and intriguing details make this photograph a captivating addition to any collection or display.
