This print captures the esteemed presence of Sir Soloman Dias Bandarancke, a notable visitor from Ceylon. As a knight bachelor and C M G (Companion of the Most Distinguished Order of St Michael and St George), Sir Bandarancke held an esteemed position in society. The photograph showcases his distinguished appearance, exuding elegance and authority. Notably, Sir Bandarancke had the honor of acting as an extra A D G (Assistant Director General) to King Edward VII during his Majesty's visit to Ceylon in 1902. This role further exemplifies his close association with royalty and highlights his significant contributions to diplomatic affairs. In this particular moment captured by Central News on August 30th, 1924, we find Sir Bandarancke taking a cure at Harrogate.

The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this twentieth-century image, evoking nostalgia for an era between the wars.
