Prince Rajit Singh at the Delhi Durbar, India, 1903: A Regal Moment Frozen in Time This evocative vintage photograph captures the regal presence of Prince Rajit Singh during the grand Delhi Durbar of 1903. The Delhi Durbar was a ceremonial assembly held in Delhi to welcome and acknowledge the new King-Emperor, Edward VII, following Queen Victoria's death in 1901. Prince Rajit Singh, a scion of the Patiala State in Punjab, is shown here in all his resplendent glory, adorned in traditional Indian attire and jewels. He holds a lantern, symbolizing the light of knowledge and wisdom, adding an intellectual and thoughtful dimension to his regal image. The photograph, taken during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, showcases the rich cultural fusion of the British Raj and the Indian princely states. The intricate details of the Prince's attire, the ornate backdrop, and the use of natural light create a captivating visual narrative of a bygone era. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online offers a unique window into the history of the British Empire in India, allowing us to explore and appreciate the complexities of this period. This photograph of Prince Rajit Singh at the Delhi Durbar is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the timeless beauty of historical imagery.
