Are there any pictures of the British Empire from the mid to late 19th Century? I’m interested in building pictures, pictures of Colonies, also as a side note, some pictures of the Delhi Durbar of 1903 and 1911. I find it facinating.
If anyone can provide me with a link to a site where there’s some. It would be greatly appreciated.
I already know of this link. But the pictures are too small.

There are plenty of links to the film of the 1911 Durbar. Try Youtube. As for photos, just search on ‘photos delhi durbar’. Here’s a start:

Hey thanks! Those links are excellent!
Here (scroll down to the third entry) is a pic of the Imperial Crown of India, which was only ever worn that one time.
Correction: That’s a replica. Here’s the real deal. Slightly less onion-shaped.
