What was the Delhi Durbar 1903? (1 Viewer)

Wow! - I keep on going through the films that the BFI has uploaded last August. It is excitingly crazy to see so many films from the Durbar, I get happier each day with all these treasures that they have shared.

Here is the fourth and last film of the Durbar that I had among my files. This has been shot from Khas road, at street level, from the right of the elephants. Enjoy.

PS: Note that it has been wrongly identified as an elephant procession from 1905. It actually is the Main Procession from 1903 :)
 
Hi Guys,

I've been working on some files with some images taken from the 3 Delhi Durbar films. Here are the elephants of the Aides-de-Camps and the first 6 pairs

Happy 2018 to all of you!

New Year's Special: The Alwar's Carriage side by side. Have in mind that we made it based on a tiny photograph of Gertrude Bell. It didn't turn out so bad... ;)
