Kundey Ras, the Guicowar of Goojerat, and his Daughter - from a photograph, 1857. Creator: Unknown
Kundey Ras, the Guicowar of Goojerat, and his Daughter - from a photograph, 1857. Kundey Ras [Khanderao II Gaekwad] has a pleasing, intelligent expression of countenance...His dress is of the richest silk, the borders embroidered with gold and pearls...He appears to possess great muscular strength, and is a capital shot. He also rides and hunts beautifully, using a European saddle, and top-boots...it is to be hoped his energy and intelligence will ensure to his dominions as much good government as we can hope to see developed in a native Court...His Highness has as yet only reigned for two or three months, and of course things are at their brightest. It remains to be proved whether his liberality extends so far as to permit the spread of European civilisation and Christian education, which have hitherto made lamentably little progress among the people of Goojerat'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857
