EDITORS COMMENTS
The Graphic, Front Cover April 3, 1886, presents an enchanting image of the grand reception held in honor of Lord Dufferin at the Throne Hall in Mandalay, Burma. The photograph, taken from "The Graphic. An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper Volume 33. January to June, 1886," captures the British colonial official, Frederick Temple Hamilton Temple-Blackwood, 1st Marquess of Dufferin and Ava, in the midst of a crowd of Burmese nobles and British officials. Lord Dufferin, who served as the Viceroy and Governor-General of India from 1884 to 1888, is prominently featured in the image, dressed in full regalia and seated on a raised platform. The Throne Hall, with its intricately decorated walls and ornate architecture, serves as a fitting backdrop to the grand occasion. The photograph offers a glimpse into the colonial era, providing a visual record of the British annexation of Burma and the pomp and ceremony that accompanied it. The image is a testament to the power and influence of the British Empire at the height of its expansion, and the awe and respect that the Burmese people held for their colonial rulers. The photograph, which is believed to be an engraving, is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the political and cultural dynamics of the late 19th century. It is a reminder of a bygone era, when colonialism was a powerful force shaping the world, and the British Empire held sway over vast territories and millions of people.
