Portrait of Shivaji II and one of his consorts

2019.69

Description

The painting of Shivaji II Bhosale (r. 1833–1855) of Thanjavur and one of his consorts is somewhat less formal in its setting. Shivaji II was the only surviving son of Serfoji II. The royal couple is shown sitting on a carpet with bold floral motifs.

तंजाऊर के शिवाजी भोसले द्वितीय (शासनकाल १८३३-१८५५) और उनकी पत्नी के इस व्यक्तिचित्र की व्यवस्था उतनी औपचारिक प्रतीत नहीं होती। वे सरफोजी द्वितीय के इकलौते जीवित पुत्र थे। यहां शाही जोड़े को एक फूलदार कालीन पर बैठे दिखाया गया है।
