‘The Historian’s Eye’ – India Through the Lens of William Dalrymple #withGalaxy

Celebrated writer, historian and photographer William Dalrymple with Senior Vice President and Head of Mobile Business, Raju Pullan at Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Jaipur Literature Festival

 

The just concluded Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Series Jaipur Literature Festival, described as the ‘greatest literary show on Earth’, united young literature fans with their favourite writers and artists.

 

Samsung’s Senior Vice President and Head of Mobile Business Raju Pullan ran into celebrated writer, historian and photographer William Dalrymple during the Fest. William gifted his book ‘The Historian’s Eye’ to Raju, but the conversation moved from books to tech in no time.

 

I have been an unofficial brand ambassador of Samsung, William Dalrymple confessed.

 

Best known for capturing the diversity of India with amazing vividity, William Dalrymple’s photo-essay, ‘The Historian’s Eye’, features an extensive collection of striking black and white images that is a reminder of India’s illustrious past.

 

“I have done two books of photographs entirely taken on my Samsung phone and they are pin-sharp. They are absolutely the most superb quality and there is nothing I miss. The difference is you capture the moment because the phone is with you always. You don’t miss anything…you don’t have to go and get anything,” he said.

 

Describing Dalrymple as an amazing writer, Raju said, “William brings in words and pictures into our minds. His book is everything to do with his creation through his eyes, through Samsung. I am amazed at the pride he brings with the product he owns.”

 

A keen photographer, who owns a number of SLR (single-lens reflex) cameras and an assortment of lenses, William Dalrymple says he now uses only his Galaxy Fold.

 

Dalrymple has had exhibitions of his photographs in London, Delhi and New York – all taken using his Samsung Galaxy.

 

The Jaipur Literature Festival, an iconic event sponsored by Galaxy Tab S9 series, embodies the essence of literary camaraderie and cultural exchange.

 

In today’s digital world, creators are a driving force, bringing new ideas and creations to life through mobile devices. This is where the Galaxy Tab S9 series comes in, designed to unlock imagination and unleash creativity.
