Add.Or.1912-1947
Thirty-six portraits of Sikandar Jah (1802-29) and his courtiers.
Hyderabad, c.1808-16.
Purchased 15 December 1961.
Inscribed in ink on reverse with identifications in English.
Gouache with gold.
205 by 140 mm.
Note: Collected in Hyderabad by Sir Henry Russell, 2nd Baronet (1783-1852), who entered the East India Company’s civil service in 1798, becoming Assistant Secretary to the Resident of Hyderabad in 1800, and Secretary in 1802. In 1807 he was the third member of a commission to investigate the claims of the Nawab of the Carnatic. Having officiated as Resident of Poona from 1809, he became Resident of Hyderabad in 1811 until his retirement in 1820. It is not known when Russell acquired the paintings, but inscriptions added on labels on the reverse give dates ranging from 1808 to 1816, commenting that the paintings were done from ten to eighteen years before. Probably these labels were added by Russell c.1826 during his retirement. ‘See also’ Add.Or.3846 and 3849.
