EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to a momentous event in history - the Native Festival of Ulsoor, Bangalore in 1916. The image captures the essence of this vibrant celebration, showcasing a bustling crowd immersed in their religious fervor. Amidst the sea of people, one cannot help but be drawn to the magnificent temple standing tall in all its grandeur. The festival's significance is amplified by its occurrence during World War One, reminding us that even amidst global conflict, cultural traditions and spiritual devotion endure. This snapshot serves as a testament to the resilience and unity of humanity during challenging times. As we delve into this photograph further, it becomes evident that Hinduism plays an integral role in shaping Indian society. The devotees' unwavering faith is palpable as they gather under the watchful eye of their revered deities. Each individual present contributes to an atmosphere charged with spirituality and devotion. It is worth noting that this image belongs to West Sussex County Council's collection at the West Sussex Record Office (Ref No: RSR Uncat Acc 3284 Vol 1 2/6th Batt/048). Preserved on a postcard dated April 18th, 1916, it stands as a remarkable historical artifact capturing both cultural heritage and wartime context. Let us cherish this glimpse into India's rich tapestry of tradition while also acknowledging how such images provide invaluable insights into our shared pasts.
