This is a group photo from 1887. A man in a suit stands at center. Three others sit beside him. Two women in dark dresses stand to the left. It’s a rare look at British rule in India. The man in charge of Punjab sits next to his brother who just retired. They’re all dressed in stiff Victorian clothes under a bright Indian sky. Want more like this? Check out Raja Deen Dayal.
