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