BARODA. A good photographic group of Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III, probably 1890s.

£145.00

The Maharaja was born in 1863 and ruled from 1875 to 1939. In this rather unusual image he is seated with his children in the centre of a large group of noblemen and retainers. It measures 297 x 237mm [ approx 11.5 x 9.25 ins] and is pasted to a stout piece of old album card. The verso has a similarly sized photograph of a very lively street scene with a procession of cavalry riding along a city street [presumably Baroda].  Reserved 27th January 2019
