EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Uprising in Bombay, after the English doctors tried to check the health of a Hindu woman during the epidemic" captures a powerful moment in history. Taken from an engraving featured in "Le petit journal" on March 27,1898, this image is part of the Selva Collection. The scene depicts a tumultuous uprising that occurred in Bombay as a response to British colonialism and their attempt to intervene during an epidemic. The photograph showcases the tension between the Indian population and their colonizers, highlighting the resistance against foreign interference. The black and white composition adds depth and intensity to this historical event. It serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by people under colonial rule during the late nineteenth century. The collaboration between F. L. Meaulle (1844-1901) and Oswaldo Tofani (1849-1915), two renowned French artists, brings forth both artistic skill and storytelling prowess. Their work sheds light on important aspects of Asian history while also reflecting upon European influence in India at that time. Leonard de Selva's photography beautifully captures this significant moment from our past. It serves as a poignant reminder of how art can preserve historical events for future generations to learn from and reflect upon.
