Kingdom), and pictures of festivals and ceremonies. Scenes of Fort Kotah and day to day activities are also depicted, as well as vivid images of royal tiger hunts, which have often been compared with paintings by Henri Rousseau. Five ground-breaking essays on the art and history of Kotah, as well as entries on the individual works, are included in this volume, cataloguing a stunning exhibition held in North America and Europe.
