EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the colonial era in India, circa 1920s. The scene features a group of three colonial women, elegantly dressed in fashionable hats and waistcoats, strolling along a dusty road in India. Accompanying them are three local servants, clad in traditional Indian attire, including turbans and medals. The women, with their bright smiles and relaxed demeanor, appear to be enjoying their leisurely outing, while their servants attend to their needs. The contrast between the colonial rulers and the colonized subjects is palpable, reflecting the complex and often contentious history of British rule in India, known as the Raj. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a visual record of a bygone era and shedding light on the intricate dynamics of colonialism and its impact on both the colonizers and the colonized.
