Casualty of War a Portrait of Maharaja Duleep Singh
CASUALTY OF WAR: Portrait of Maharajah Duleep Singh 2013 Poster Colour, Gouache and gold dust on Conservation mountboard (Museums of Scotland Collection) Artists’ Commentary - © The Singh Twins 2104. ‘Casualty of War: A Portrait of Maharaja Duleep Singh’ - A Summary This painting is inspired by a group of artefacts (mostly jewellery) in the National Museum of Scotland collections that are associated with the historical figure of Maharaja Duleep Singh whose life is intimately connected with British history. Essentially, it depicts the man behind these artefacts. But rather than being a straightforward portrait, it paints a narrative of his life, times and legacy to provide a context for exploring what these artefacts represent from different perspectives. That is, not just as the once personal property of a Sikh Maharaja now in public British possession, but as material objects belonging to a specific culture and time - namely, that of pre-Partition India, Colonialism and Empire. Interwoven into this visual history, is Duleep Singh’s special connection with Sir John Login, an individual who, possibly more than any other, influenced Duleep Singh’s early upbringing. And whose involvement with the Maharaja, both as his guardian and as a key player in British interests in India, reflected the ambiguous nature of Duleep Singh’s relationship with the British establishment. On the one hand, it shows Duleep Singh’s importance as an historical figure of tremendous significance and global relevance whose life story is inextricably tied to and helped shaped British-Indian, Punjabi, Anglo-Sikh history, politics and culture, past and present. On the other hand, it depicts Duleep Singh as the tragic, human figure. -

A few years foolhardy, before passing on to the next ago I came across Stories about Famous victim. One wonders why anyone craves the Precious Stones by Adela E. Orpen (1855- ownership of the great stones as their history 1927), published in America in 1890. In this is of nothing but ruin and despair! All of the book, it is not the scholarship that matters, stones in this piece can still be seen, many more the romance and mythology of the of them in royal collections, some in vaults.
