EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the 22nd Bombay Infantry, British Indian troops stationed in Kowloon, China around 1902. The image exudes an air of early imperialism and westernization as these soldiers stand tall in their uniformed attire. Each man proudly holds his rifle while donning a turban, symbolizing their cultural heritage amidst the influence of Western military formation. Taken by Carleton H. Graves, this stereograph offers a glimpse into the East India Company's presence during this era. The composition is strikingly powerful, highlighting both the strength and diversity within this regiment. It serves as a testament to the rich tapestry of cultures that converged during this time period. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its visual appeal. The attention to detail is evident through every intricate element captured by Graves' lens - from the expressions on each soldier's face to their precise positioning within the frame. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are transported back to turn-of-the-century China where these brave men stood united under one flag. This print stands as a reminder of our shared past and serves as an homage to those who served with honor and dedication in distant lands far from home.
