Description

A fascinating look at the elegance of the Maharajahs.
This book explores the Maharajahs' adoration for the West and its luxury items, a passion born out of colonial history and fueled by trips to Europe. With examples of jewelry, furniture, and objets d'art, it shows how these princes appropriated Western elegance to mark their sovereignty, while adding a touch of majesty and refinement.
