Maharaja Ram Singh in procession entering a fort, India, Kotah, circa 1850, opaque pigments heightened with gold on paper laid down on cloth, painting 51 x 74.5cm. Accompanied by his queen and harem, who are protected within a red palanquin, and his flamboyant retinue of horses, elephants, and followers, Maharaja Ram Singh returns to the fort. This vivid scene is replete with a profusion of flora and fauna, including monkeys, peacocks, birds and fish, and crocodiles in the moat. For an almost identical scene see Sotheby's 19 March 2014, Lot 6, and Sotheby's 24 May, 2004, Lot 10.
