NEHRU JAWAHARLAL: (1889-1964) Indian anti-colonial nationalist and statesman who served as the first Prime Minister of India 1950-64. A very fine vintage signed 8 x 11 photograph of Nehru seated in a three-quarter length pose. Photograph by A. J. Patel of Bombay and dated 26th April 1948 by the photographer to the border. Signed ('Jawaharlal Nehru') by Nehru to the lower photographer's mount and dated April 1950 in his hand. Some very light, minor uniform age toning to the photographer's mount, otherwise VG
The present portrait of Nehru was taken whilst he was in office as Prime Minister of the Dominion of India (1947-50) and just a matter of months after the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi on 30th January 1948 (on which day Nehru delivered 'The light has gone out of our lives' speech; often cited as one of the greatest speeches in history). Nehru signed the portrait a few months after having become the first Prime Minister of the Republic of India once the Constitution of India came into effect on 26th January 1950.
