EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the Kings Indian Orderly Officers of 1911. Taken by renowned photographer C Vandyk, this print offers a glimpse into the grandeur and elegance of the Coronation of King George V. The sitters in this portrait are Major L C Jones from the 5th Cavalry, Subadar Major Bahadur Ali Khan representing the 51st Sikhs (Frontier Force), Rissaldar Major Malik Sher Bahadur Khan from the 26th King George's Own Light Cavalry, Rissaldar Major Abdul Karim Khan belonging to the 30th Lancers (Gordon's Horse), and Subadar Major Muhammad Ismail hailing from the 32nd Mountain Battery. Each officer is dressed impeccably in their ceremonial uniforms, exuding an air of authority and pride. Their stern yet dignified expressions reflect their dedication to duty and loyalty to their king. This image is part of a collection consisting of thirty-three photographs taken between 1903-1938 by C Vandyk himself. Preserved at London's National Army Museum, it serves as a historical document that transports us back to an era marked by pomp and circumstance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we can't help but marvel at its ability to capture not only individual portraits but also a sense of camaraderie among these officers who shared such an important event together. It stands as a testament to their service
