EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Formidable Warrior of Rewa" showcases the strength and grandeur of an Indian warrior during the early 20th century. The color lithograph, created by Mortimer Ludington Menpes, captures the essence of this formidable figure in stunning detail. The warrior's regal presence is evident as he stands tall and proud, adorned in traditional attire that reflects his rich Indian heritage. His eyes exude a sense of determination and resilience, embodying the spirit of a true warrior. This artwork was featured in "The Durbar" a book written by Dorothy Menpes with illustrations by Mortimer Menpes. The Durbar refers to a grand assembly held in 1903 to commemorate Edward VII and Alexandra of Denmark's ascension as Emperor and Empress of India. This historical event marked an important milestone for both British imperialism and Indian culture. Through this image, we are transported back to a time when India was under colonial rule but still retained its unique identity. It serves as a reminder of the diverse cultures that coexisted within the vast landscape of Asia during this era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the indomitable spirit that resides within every warrior – regardless of time or place.
