EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the tragic death of Tipu Sultan, also known as Tipu Sahib, the Tiger of Mysore, in 1799. The scene depicted is from Schiavonetti's painting "The Body of Tipu Sultan Recognized by his Family," a heart-wrenching moment frozen in time. In this handcoloured copperplate engraving by Andrea Bernieri from Giulio Ferrario's "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World," we see the grief-stricken family members mourning over the lifeless body of their beloved leader. The sorrow and pain etched on their faces are palpable, conveying a sense of deep loss and despair. Tipu Sultan was a formidable ruler who fought valiantly against British colonial forces until his untimely demise. His death marked the end of an era for Mysore and left a void that could never be filled. As we gaze upon this poignant portrayal of mourning and lamentation, we are reminded of the fleeting nature of life and the inevitability of death. It serves as a powerful reminder to cherish our loved ones while they are still with us, for one day they too may be gone. May Tipu Sultan's legacy live on through this moving depiction, serving as a testament to his courage, strength, and unwavering spirit in the face of adversity.
