Plate presented by the Inhabitants of Calcutta to Sir Rowland MacDonald Stephenson... 1857. Creator: Unknown
Plate presented by the Inhabitants of Calcutta to Sir Rowland MacDonald Stephenson, Managing Director of the East Indian Railway, 1857. The accompanying address stated: "Without perseverance such as yours we should to the present day have been without a single mile of railway on this side of India. Led by your excellent example, the other Presidencies of India have taken up the scheme which you years ago predicted would be of such advantage to this country; and you have proved...that this mode of communication is not less adapted to the wants and habits of the natives of India than to those of the inhabitants of Europe"...'The Plate consists of a magnificent candelabrum...designed and executed by Messrs. Hunt and Roskell...At each angle of the base are Indian figures: a Hindoo porter and girl with vase...and an English engineer directing a native workman in his operations'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857
