Nawab Jumaloodeen Bahadur. (Dewan). Bhopal. Photographer: Waterhouse, James
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Ethnographical Photography
Oval image. Full-length seated portrait. 'The Dewan is not a pure Afghan, but has an admixture of Hindoo blood. His ancestors in the fourth of fifth generations were Hindoos of the Kullal, or distillers' caste, and were made Mussulman proselytes in the time of the Emperors of Delhi...[he] was taken into Her Highness's service as a mutsuddy; and having been well educated in Delhi, and naturally of a grave and thoughtful mind, he became a great favourite, and rose rapidly, by his ability and perseverence, to the high rank he now holds. Jumaloodeen personally is a most amiable, upright man, and has proved himself an able statesman and councillor. At the time of the mutinies he was absent on a pilgrimage to Mecca. His age is fifty-five, and he is a tall, good-looking man.' For another copy of this print, see Photo 355/9 (16).
