This photo-chromotype, a type of color printing process popular in the late 19th century, depicts Maharajah Madho Singh II of Jaipur, India. The image, created by British photographer William H. Griggs between 1880 and 1900, showcases the Maharajah in traditional attire, his elaborate turban and jewelry highlighting his status. The photo-chromotype, a popular method of color reproduction at the time, aims to capture the Maharajah's regal presence and offers a glimpse into the colorful world of Indian royalty during the British Raj.
