This military procession is the army of a royal fgure of Udaipur with the likeness of
Colonel Maharaja Sir Sajjan Singh (1859–1884). This distinct style of painting, which
includes many portraits in profle, comes from the city of Udaipur, in the Mewar region of
Rajasthan, the rulers of which were great patrons of the arts.
