{{Use dmy dates|date=May 2015}}{{Use Indian English|date=May 2015}}Aditya Arya Archive is one of the earliest photographic archives in India, engaged in the digitizing, documentation, annotation, restoration and preservation of photographic material of archival significance in India.[1][2]

Aditya Arya Archive is led by Aditya Arya,[2] who is an eminent commercial photographer.[3]

History

The Aditya Arya Archive began with the historical collection of photojournalist Kulwant Roy, presented to Aditya Arya.[1] Roy (1914-1984) was among the handful of photojournalists in India who documented the eventful years immediately before and after independence. He was a close friend of the Arya family[4] and left his surviving photographic negatives and prints to Aditya Arya. These prints and negatives remained forgotten in boxes for nearly 23 years[5] after his death, until their inheritor Aditya Arya, began restoring and cataloguing them.[6] The archive included many unpublished pictures of national leaders and events of the Indian pre and post-independence era[7] and were brought to the public domain after the establishment of the Aditya Arya Archive.[8]

One of the outcomes of the unearthing and restoration process of the archive was that many images from the last years of British rule and the early decades after India’s independence, which were reprinted over the decades and credited to random journalists, turned out to be Roy’s work and have now been duly acknowledged. One of many such images is the iconic 1939 photograph of Mohandas K. Gandhi and Ali Jinnah in a heated argument, which has now been credited to Roy by Getty Images.[6]

Many historians believe that the archive may shed light on the key moments in India’s independence movement.[3]

Rare and iconic images from the Aditya Arya Archive

Aditya Arya Archive contains some rare and iconic images from the period of India’s independence struggle and thereafter.[5] These include rare photographs of Jawaharlal Nehru, Gandhi and Sardar Patel huddled in an animated discussion,[7] Mahatma Gandhi in debate with Mohd. Ali Jinnah, with whom he was seldom seen with, Jacqueline Kennedy sharing a laugh with Pt. Nehru, Pt. Nehru wearing khaki shorts heading to attend a Congress Seva Dal Volunteers rally in Kanpur,[7] Pt. Nehru in cricket gear, the Indian National Army Trials, Pt. Nehru bidding farewell to his grandson Rajiv Gandhi as he leaves for a tour,[4] Congress Party meetings, Muslim League meetings,[4] Mahatma Gandhi’s visit to the North West Frontier Province, signing of the Indian Constitution, Mahatma Gandhi addressing the Indian National Army soldiers,[5] the Cripps' Mission, a series documenting the development of the Bhakra Dam and photographs from the front of the Sino-Indian War, etc.

History in the making

Taking a leap with the Kulwant Roy collection, the Aditya Arya Archive released a book, History in the making – The visual archives of Kulwant Roy, in April 2010. The book has been published in hardback by HarperCollins Publishers India Ltd.[5]

Aditya Arya and Indivar Kametkar worked together on the book for nearly three years, putting together text and images to form a compelling visual narrative.[5] It is a visual documentary on the history of India from the 1930s to 1950s and some of Kulwant Roy’s original captions and the imprint of his own rubber stamp on several pages.[7] The forward has been written by India’s Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh.[5]
