 The bulk of the negatives in the collection are portraits, but they also include numerous landscapes of Jaipur and Amber and art objects such as paintings and sword hilts.The most distinctive part of the collection is the set of wet plate negatives that documents the "zenana" women, offering us a unique insight into the microcosm of the "zenana".The photographic equipment in the collection belonged to Maharaja Sawai Ram Singh II and it appears to date from the 1860s.
