The Visit of the Prince of Wales to India, 1876 - The Princes Elephant Charged by a Tiger in the Nepaul Terai, February 21st
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures a remarkable moment from history. In this stunning image, we witness an extraordinary encounter between two powerful forces of nature. As the Prince of Wales embarked on his visit to India in 1876, little did he know that he would be caught amidst an intense battle between an elephant and a tiger. This photograph freezes the heart-stopping moment when the majestic prince's elephant is charged by a ferocious tiger in the wilds of Nepal's Terai region. The composition beautifully portrays both fear and bravery as all eyes are fixed on this life-and-death struggle. The prince himself remains calm and composed atop his regal mount while witnessing this awe-inspiring spectacle unfold before him. This image not only showcases the grandeur and strength of these magnificent creatures but also symbolizes Britain's imperialist ambitions during that era. It serves as a reminder of how rulers sought to assert their dominance over vast territories through exploration and conquest. Richard Caton Woodville's lithograph expertly captures every intricate detail - from the elaborate royal attire to the expressions etched on each face present at this historic event. Through its vivid depiction, it transports us back in time, allowing us to experience firsthand one thrilling episode from Edward VII's journey through India. This print stands as both a testament to human courage and an homage
