Showcasing an extensive range of photographs from India's princely states, The Unforgettable Maharajas opens a window into the private lives of the maharajas. Featuring the jewelry, interiors, portraiture and many more aspects of the lives of these majestic families, this luxurious book is a documentation in photographs, of the maharajas of India: undoubtedly one of the greatest anachronisms of the 20th century. Among them were enlightened rulers and profligate princes, saints and scoundrels, heroes and cowards, sadists and boors, charmers and eccentrics. In the eyes of their people, however, they had the divine right to rule and they left the stamp of an unmistakable aura of majesty.

A comprehensive collection of historical photographs from princely India, this is also the largest selection of royal pictures in any one book.
